FCC regulates EIRP, which is output+antenna gain. For this to be strictly legal you would need to adjust the power down until the EIRP is within the legal limit. Actually to be strictly legal I think it would need to be type excepted by the FCC.

That being said if you're using this in your home/office on a legal channel it would be really difficult to even tell from outside you were using it and almost certainly not worth the FCCs time to even try to watch for it. It's not that much extra gain over the stock antenna.

To be fair, the FCC regulates both EIRP (4 W / 36 dBm) and max transmit power (1 W / 30 dBm). E.g. you can't just have a 34 dBm transmitter hooked up to a 2 dBi dipole.
