New holes or existing ones

[fsa]

When you do any modification on you turbo do you put new holes or do you most likely use the existing ones.

Personally I find it hard to put any holes in my turbo as it changes the look of the system even if it's my spare one, I like to keep it oem.

What are some thoughts on this?

For region, you can go switchless.  For inputs, depending what you want, you really have limited options.

switchless only works on turbo express or GT systems. So you have to use a switch. I usually put a switch on the rear of the system so that way you don't really notice it. Although in the past I have mounted some on the side which still doesn't look bad as long as it is black.

I stand corrected.

I wasn't exactly sure what this thread was about when I first read the title

Now I see that it's about modding!

well for region switch I place them somewhere it isn't obvious, Turbo Duo has switch on the back, and TG-16 I use a very small push switch not very noticeable. But for these you do have to make holes.

for audio and video mod however I do use existing holes, so it looks OEM. Check out the TG-16 that I did for my brother in law not that long ago. I got rid of the RF unit and replaced with video and audio ports, I'm pretty happy with it.

This thread isn't nearly as dirty as I thought it was going to be. Disappointed.

It depends. I like to keep things looking as stock as possible, but when doing things like installing jacks you pretty much have to do some drilling. I like to put stuff in locations that make it look like it came from the factory, or using tiny parts and placing them in the back.

I love drilling new holes.

....yeah.

[BlackandBlue]

I mean, it depends.  If it's mine, I like to keep the holes that are there and only make them bigger if need be.  If it's not mine, I will destroy those holes and use holes for other things dont need to be used, but would like to try with something that isnt mine.  I dont want to break my own...
