i've been looking for a way to recirculate and it doesn't seem like there's much info about it. for those that are recirculating, where did you get everything to do it? i can't seem to find the right hose to do it with...

Depends on what BOV you are running. I am running an HKS SSQV and the recirc fitting was $12. You got to remove the cover of the BOV (4 allen screws) and replace the the stock insert with the new one. Then I just got some 1" rubber hose from NAPA and ran it to the stock recirc location on the intake.

I have the Greddy type S and it is real simple to do. Just get a hose, about 1in. and just attach it to the the blowoff valve opening on the side, then run it to the intake stock recirc. opening, clamp both sides of hose and your done. This is if it is on the hotpipe.

My Greddy Type S hole is no way 1 inch it seems. I tried to use some radiator piping but it doesnt seem to bend very nicely so Im stuck on options. I think Im gonna try to get a custom hose made but if anyone has any info on which hoses and where to buy it, it would help out alot. Thanks!

You need to get a hose with an I.D. ( Inner Diam.) of 1 1/4". Just find the hose and connector one end to BOV and the other to the Air Intake After the MAFS. Should already have a 1" metal nipple there. Make sure you clamp down the Intake side nice and tight because of diff. in size. You can get Heater Hoses or other hoses.. If you have a straight clear path.. Clear PVC Hose from Home Depot would Work:)

Find a friendly parts store that will let you browse their hose collection. You can make any shape using a couple of hoses and a connector, just find the right end sizes and appropriate shapes to do what you need.

Lowes has that clear hose in that pic.

Also I found somewhere a while back that sells downsizers for the Greddy typeS that screw into the outlet of it. Basically so you can run 1" on the BOV and 1" on the rubber intake tube.
