What kind of CAI did you buy ?
Just install a breather filter on the hose from the end of the valve cover that used to hook to the air box.
You got your OCC and have it hooked up ?

I don't think you need to tune anything

Unlike the pcv side, the side the breather goes on does not blow any measurable amount of oil. I've had mine on for about 20k and all there is is a slight oil film...

Just hook a breather filter on the hose coming from the valve cover. You can disconnect the battery ground for 10 minutes to let the ecu re-learn the new setup if you want but it's probably not necessary. That is the only tuning needed. Disconnect the battery ground for 10 minutes.
