Remove the MAF sensor and spray it with MAF cleaning solution (small can - similar to what WD40 looks like or compress air can to clean y our PC) a couple times - let dry and re-install... very easy and simple process. Takes just a couple minutes to do.

Ditto here too. I'm going to disconnect it and clean the contacts too (ala Mike Focke's instructions) ... I'm running the OEM standard filter.
