check the plugs, replace or regap to .035 - .037 NGK BPCR6ES11
clean the injectors - Techron Concentrate
Some of what you notice is part of the beast, but the Tech should not show a drop. The system is meant to increase air flow right before the engagement of the rad fans. You will feel torque changes (normal). But the dimming lights does not sound like a health battery. If tach shows RPM drops, I would inspect the TB to see if that needs to be cleaned... deposits might be interfering with the movement pr effectiveness of the motorized throttle plate. But it seems a bit early for such to happen for a 2002.
Check battery connectors for condition and tighteness.
Check battery electroyte levels if possible.
