A blow by will reduce engine efficiency by increasing the intake of oil and fuel. The piston rings and cylinder walls will wear; hence, allowing more fuel to flow to the crankcase. Blow by can affect the intake valves. When the blow finds its way to the cylinder, it can cause the engine to knock.
This is why you should have a catch can plus GM routing the dirty side PCV into the intake tube is only to satisfy the EPA emission standards. But hey if you say it gets 20 more HP all the power to you.(humour) In reality the breather filter does nothing for HP or performance, it ads longevity to your engine.
