Default EGR on Radix?

I was helping a buddy install a new Radix kit on a 2002 Denali yesterday and the instrucitions never mentioned anything about the EGR. How and where does the EGR tube hook to the blower? There is a brass plug screwed into a surface down under the TB opening and just below that is a small drilled and tapped hole so I am thinking maybe that is where it goes, but the kit didn't come with anything that looks like it goes there?

Anybody else run into this or have a pic of what the EGR should look like?

Thanks in advance....

It sounds like you found the right port. It should have a 1/2" brass plug in it. In the kit there should be a 1/2" pipe nipple about 3" long and an alluminum adapter that will screw onto the end of the nipple. Just as a side note the nipple supplied in my kit was a shade short not allowing the set-up to be fully tightened "had to go to the hardware store". Also the nipple and adapter will need to be installed before the e-vap purge solenoid or you will just have to take it back off.

Thanks man. The necessary pieces were not in the kit nor was the wiring extension for the ETC wire. He called and got the stuff overnighted and it is now on the road!!

This is the first Radix I have actually worked on and I must say I am impressed with the quality of the kit. The instructions could be better but the kit is very nice. I almost kinda wish I would have done one of these for my Blazer instead of the STS.....

Glad ya'll got her going. I agree on the instructions, as there was no mention of an extension for the ETC, so I just extended my harness to reach without a second thought. I kind of wished I'd known one was available, would saved a few minutes.
