Does that not make it a dump valve, albeit to the inlet air pipe rather than, as i expect you are referring to, atmosphere?
Can we move this from the Register section?
A recirculation valve recirculates the charged air back into the air intake system which has been metered from the MAF.

A dump (Chav)valve dumps the charged air to atmosphere (as you have stated)thus confusing the metered air which in turn will make the engine run rich..
