Disconnecting the battery wont cause any problems with the car or its engine.
Not sure about the alarm though

why re-set the ecu?
changing the filter wont do anything. probably make it run worse, but sound better.

who told you this? an airfilter will make your car crap because they have a tendancy to suck in hot air from the engine bay... engines prefare cold air...
the only thing disconnecting your battery will do is feck up your radio... make sure you have the code for it before you start...
