Well the recirculation fitting on the BOV itself is 1.25" so I don't see how it could be overkill to keep the diameter equal width from where it leaves the BOV to where it re-enters the intake stream.

My intake bung is actually pointing towards the front of the car. Your BOV is in the exact same position mine is in and if you put it anywhere besides there you might have a hard time getting a hose to connect from the BOV to the intake without kinks or hard bends.
edit: I will attach a picture of the way I have it setup after work today.

Sorry didnt get a chance to take a pic whilee it was bright out but I'll get one up soon.
One more thing about the Synapse BOV, I haven't had any issues with it what so ever since recirculating. Car will never stumble or want to stall on deceleration. If I blip the throttle into boost then let off real quick then go back into boost immediately the car does buck a little but nothing dramatic. Also, it sounds awesome recirculated and is by far the nicest noise coming from a BOV that I've heard (I had an apexi and hks bov on a ca18det 240sx I owned previously). I will often spool up the turbo just to hear it

I'll stick with the Synapse and order some 1.25 ID hose (thinking about going blue) and see about sourcing a bung with a 1.25 OD to get welded AFTER my maf.
Thanks everyone! Much appreciated !!! Jeff let me know how you want to settle up on the recirc fitting.

Here are the pics of the way I have the BOV recirculation setup. Sorry the image quality isn't the greatest, I don't have my camera atm so had to take these with my phone but it should show it well enough.

ALL GREDDY TURBO OWNERS , and other FI owners as well
Take a look at this thread and check your vacuum pipeing . It would seem that a LOT of installers are getting this wrong .
