Get yourself a forge 007p recirc valve and most induction kits will be fine as long as they are not oiled :undecided:

the oiled filters ie K&N have been known to mess up the mass air flow sensor (MAF) but as you said ur mate has had no problems where as some people have had lots of problems
as gaz said stick with a forge 007p or a forge eliminator valve , bailey do a valve but as before some people have had problems some have not

i would stick with whats safe
