As soon as I receive it, I will install my 3" CAI, then Plug my OFT and read it to my ECU, then use my laptop to adjust the scaling given by Perrin. Then Write it using the proper stage of course, which in my case would be EL header stage 2. Does this seem about right or am I missing something? Should I read my ECU Before or after I install my 3" CAI?

With the oft reading the stock rom file is how you marry the oft to your car. Your just reading the stock tune into the oft which can be written back any time you like. Any variable parameters like learned fuel trims or knock correction IAM values are set back to default\cleared each time you flash a tune or reset ecu, eg disconnect battery..
The perrin 3" maf definitly requires the custom scaling supploed by perrin else car will drive like crap and may run lean at high rpm.
