I have a Rpm2 I need to open up to 75mm, what tool can I use to make this easy, I do not have an air compressor, but can buy a small one as they are only $60 at harbor frieght, I tried my rotary tool but it didn't work. I've never been to harbor freight but I'd think I could get what I need there.

Hi, my name is Jimmy Herrera aka 91Trunkster (510)375-1589 and I got snitched out by my friend or friends. Ain't that a bitch, some one or some people would rat out my fake account here to keep their own secret fake account? If you all forgot, I'm an old ass 30 something year old "man" that likes to make internet friends with boys fresh out of highschool. I like to post "bruh" a lot just like the annoying immature and ghetto CAFords kids do. I like to talk shit about this website, make it look bad, all the while trying to make and save money off of other members here. Some may call me a selfish immature bitch. Deep down I know they are correct, it's not like I have anything else going on in my life or anything but negativity to offer this community. This is a free site. Suckers spend good time and money to keep this website going. They're suckers for doing so, so fuck them, I'm going to take them for all they got. It's all about me in this world.

Who is the next troll or just plain annoying post whore to get the boot???

Might end up cheaper having someone do it for you if you are gonna have to tool up for just one job, but harbor freight should have what you need at a good price , maybe an electric rotary tool would be best so you don't have to buy a compressor .

Right on, but I'm not even going to pull it off the car to do it, thanks though.

I plugged it with wet rags, I bought a 3 gallon air from harbor freight but it isn't enough to run a grinder so I'll be taking it back for an electric one, the electric one is to big to do on car so I'm going to have to pull it.

Thank god, that aluminum gets everywhere. The 10 minutes to pull the upper is not worth the risk!

Finished it all up Friday, used an electric die grinder from Harbor Freight, only cost $35, it came out good, really glad I pulled the intake off, it made it pretty easy.
