How deep is the MAF adapter pushed into the filter? If there is too much piping in the filter, it won't pick up sufficient air, which would explain the engine choking. I had a similar issue when I first installed my RRM CAI.

im using the stock maf as well with my SRI. and i just so happened to have the metal wire mesh filter. not a spectre but its an AR brand. haha
at first i would get the CEL as well. after removing it and installing it again and resetting the ecu by unplugging the neg on the battery for ten minutes and then letting the car just idle for 5 minutes then taking it for a drive, i didnt get the CEL anymore and havent gotten it in almost 2 years.
