9 times out of 10 it's the small o-ring deteriorated in the brake pedal air switch. Why not check that first? Hook up your mityvac to the small hose that runs to the brake pedal air switch and see if it holds a vacuum until you step on the pedal.

There's controversy on that. Many say the filtration is not that great and has ruined their engine in a short time. I think there is an efficiency and power hit because the stock airbox has a cold ram air system built in. At speed cold air from in front of the radiator, A/C condenser is rammed into the airbox thru the venturi horn. With a cone filter in the engine bay it's pulling in hot underhood air, less dense, less oxygen, etc.
