OEM, no benefit to aftermarket for out cars unless you're modding for over 500hp

NO.

Your PCM is tuned accounting for that screen.

Cut it out, you can mess up your tune, not to mention get debris on the MAF wires. Which is bad.

^^2x. It makes the air flow more laminar (not turbulent) so the MAF get's an accurate reading. And the screen itself isn't restrictive enough to matter.
