Cutting boost holes!! - silverzx - 07-05-2013

Anyone able to recommend a drill bit / piece / thing for cutting 3" holes in my chassis nice and easily for boost pipes to run through? Don't really fancy cutting squares and covering with spare rubber window/door seals!

plasma cutter / hole saw / jigsaw if your feeling rash....

note, on mine i slid a silicon up over the hose where it went through to stop any knocking / protect it a bit.

Ordered a set of cheapy hole saws with sizes from quater inch up to 2 and a half inches I think.

I'll give them a go before anything! Smile
