I think it adds a good 5-10 HP. No seriously, it doesn't do a thing for gains. Just looks. Just a way to get some freah air in there.

I don't know how strict the laws are in the states but in Canada, specifically the Toronto area, they are starting
to get pretty strict with emissions. My friend got pulled over buy an unmarked car to do a roadside check of his
car. They noticed the breather and gave him a warning but next time its a $100 fine (around $65 US). So up
here its not worth the 1 hp gain so I'm not doing it. I'll stick with the NOS!
