If anything it may be a decrease from stock, because of the increased amount of heat being drawn into the breather.

Props for hooking the CCV line up correctly, but you know you're drawing hot air downwind of the radiator and power steering pump, and a few billion BTUs off the exhaust manifold, right? You got yerself a Hot Air Intake
