Did you make sure that the filter oil was completely dry before you attached it to your intake? If not the oil could gum up your MAF sensor, causing running problems. Also, the intake probably accounts for the louder engine sound when you started it up. Typically happens when an aftermarket intake is installed (more air rushing in, and then you don't have the larger diameter section of your intake piping that reduced engine sound and performance).
