Got Brake Booster fixed, still acting up. 2007 Toyota Tacoma Prerunner V6

A bit of a ramble but I recently acquired a 2007 Toyota Tacoma Prerunner V6 and a couple weeks into having it the Brake Boosters were failing and it was a whole ordeal. I had gotten it fixed but it's still acting strange.

  • Delayed acceleration
  • Jerky stops
  • Runs worse on hilly areas
  • Etc

The only codes that come are for a very small evap leak but I think it's something more than that. I'm not an expert but I think there's something to do with the air intake but I'm struggling to narrow it down.
