On the wing side of the airbox anywhere below where the filter sits inside the box.

If you drill it on the engine side it'll suck in hot air.

Depends on how you want it to sound. Big holes like the size of a 10p coin makes it sound deep whereas lots of tiny holes make it sound raspy.

Or big holes like this.....

This bottom section is now removed. Hammer and a big flat blade screwdriver.





This is what I used.

I used a similar tool piece although I don't think the holes I drilled are as big as that.
