Still sounds like a fouled MAF. I had a similar problem with a flat spot and no error codes yet. I cleaned the MAF and it improved for a while but came back over time with codes. Replacing the MAF was the cure.

I suspect the 987 airbox on a 2.5L may improve performance slightly above 6krpm but may sacrifice some torque in the 4-6k range. A tradeoff worth taking??? Depends on your goals I guess.
