Question

Hi guys,

Having trouble finding a new restrictor for my car.

Can it be made out of plastic or is the air pressure strong enough to widen the hole in time ?

Cheers,
Ray

Razor, I made a set of (different sized) restrictors. I bought some ordinary brass wood screws at a DIY store, cut the head and thread off leaving only the shoulder then drilled them to different hole diameters using a little dremmel.#

Sounds good; however, I can't seem to find a drill bill small enough

Cheers,
