Default Drill and tap factory lid for meth

Has anyone drilled and tapped the factory lid for a dual nozzle meth kit to act like a direct port? The lids are aluminum so it shouldn't be that hard to drill them, why haven't we seen that and it would be post rotor for the best results I'd think... I've looked everywhere for an example or results but keep coming up empty...

Not sure on factory ones but NX makes one that can be used for Meth or Nitrous. Nice looking piece but it's like $800

Yeah and then you need 8 nozzles, solenoids, and distribution blocks which adds up instead of a dual nozzle alky kit and drilling two holes in your factory lid... It would be about $1k+ cheaper...

direct port would be spraying "Directly" onto the intake valves. drilling and tapping the lid is not really any different than just tapping the intake tube.

yes, using more nozzles around the whole lid would atomize better (and is better). but one or two nozzles in the lid is no different than the intake tube.
