Hi,
When the vehicle is in neutral, does it rev normally? Also, when you try to accelerate and the RPMs increase but it doesn't speed up, does it rev normally?
As far as the cracked air box is concerned, if the crack is before the mass air flow sensor, it shouldn't be an issue. If there is a leak after it, that will cause issues.
Also, the backfiring from under the hood is likely a leaking exhaust manifold which is common.
Let me know if you have a scanner with live data and what codes have been retrieved.
Take care,
Joe
