Others on here have tested restriction plates in the air intake and seen increases in mileage.
opening up a drain to allow air to enter seems like a bad idea, you are going to mess with the fluid dynamics of the air intake as well as bypassing the air filter.
for the air intake you want to maintain momentum of the air, opening up a drain like you did is going to dampen that momentum.
