An unfortunate consequence of the modern closed PCV/breather system is the unintended ingestion of oil vapor and carbon into the intake tract. This lowers the octane rating and leaves harmful deposits on a vehicle's intake valves and ports that result in decreased power.

This design also catches as much blow-by gas as possible, bringing carbon buildup to an absolute minimum.
