A quick update. I was able to use my new diag tool to scan for codes; I had several all pointing to the MAF and air system. Rather than try to figure out what each one was, I reset all codes because there should be absolutely nothing wrong with the car as it has 619 miles on it. I plan to get it out this week and see if the codes return. If so, I will post and also make an appt.. But my hope is that the codes were just temporary due to taken everything apart.

On thing I noticed, is that the car started up fine, had a nice sound from the new filter, and when shut off, the fan ran for a few seconds and turned off as normal.

After clearing the codes and driving for a while, all is well. No engine light. Couldn't get out on the highway to see if there is a performance difference but I will report back.

That the JerseyDevil's butt dynamometer can tell a 5 hp increase, if you even get that.
