Update:

Some loss of power is a pretty consistent loss of power in every gear. It drives, but is slower to rev, and on the freeway cannot get past 65 MPH. I've parked it back in the driveway. It's got 92k and the original MAF.... I'm thinking that after looking at all the other high mileage cars on this forum, that could be the culprit?

No codes are being thrown right this moment, and the engine does make a backfiring noise if I gas it too hard to "overcome" the loss of power
