i get it all except the size of holes. Is it saying do 1/4 and 1/2 inch holes randomly or is there some reason for having 1/4inch in some places and 1/2 in the others? cheers.

Just make sure that any holes etc are below the filter level. It really makes no difference to the size and pattern of your holes, obviously though, the bigger the better.

thats what the filter is for, you drill below the filter line
and what pipe are you talkin about? the small one on the base of the box, it just pulls off

if you cut one big hole out of the front then the sound will reverberate in the box and sound better

if you just make one big hole in the air box under the filter and leave it with no pipe would this work?
