Just borrow a drill and a 3/4 inch drill bit.

Drill & Paint:

Not sure I understand the purpose of painting this. Wasn't the pipe black to begin with? So what's the point of spray painting black paint onto a black pipe? Does drilling that little glory hole change the color somehow?

It's a cutout. You put it into your exhaust piping, and run stock until you take the plate off the other side, then the exhaust flows freely out of there making for very loud noise and HP gains (in cars with enough air intake to not need the back pressure).

I would rather spend $20 and add washers than drill a hole in my exhaust. Sounds good man.

WAIT why would you do this? Wouldn't that let hot air in when you're sitting in traffic and when you're moving fast prevent the ram air effect that was designed with this airbox? I'm not sure but I remember when i was on myg35.com they said that for the g35 they had this design because of the ram air effect when you're going 55mph or over. Thats why so many of the aftermarket intakes feels like that lost power compared to the stock ones.

Sorry thread jacked lol.

I think it was meant as a bit of a joke to poke fun.
