I did it and all I had to buy were two vacuum caps from the parts store. It was like $1.50 or something like that. You can use the hose that's already there.

All you need is a 3/8" barbed brass hose connector from the hardware store. Pull the coolant hoses off the throttle body and join them together with the connector and reuse the hose clamps that were on the tb. If you want to you can put caps on the fittings on the throttle body to make it look nice.
