"K&N bolt on proper job" I assume you mean the cone filter? I would respectfully suggest that you remove the thing, replace the original (proper!) airbox with a new panel filter, and see if it improves. Also, as suggested, clean the MAF sensor with a spray of brake cleaner. On an otherwise standard engine, the cone things are good for more noise and nothing much else.
