Default Air Recirculation Tube on 98 civic ex - AEM V2

There are two 5/8" holes in the upper intake pipe and one nipple on the AEM V2 Cold Air System for a 1996-2000 Civic EX. The nipple is for the Air Recirculation Tube according to the instructions, but I did not disconnect a tube when I removed the factory air box. The IAT and Breather fit into the holes easy, but where is the Air Recirculation Tube at?

I searched under, "Air Recirculation Tube" and "AEM V2" and did not find the answer.

Thank you for the help.

Wow... no one knows? I even emailed & called AEM yesterday and they have no idea. I spoke with a tech and he said he'd call me back. He never did, so I called him. He told me they haven't forgotten about me but they're still working on it.

AEM told me to block off the nipple, which is what I did in the first place. I wonder why the instructions state to install the air recirculation tube?

Case closed I guess. BTW it sounds great.

you can tap it off or buy a black tube to fit it and connect it to the ventilation pipe on the valve cover.
