Default Drilling into throttle body

Has anyone drilled into the throttle body to put in a vacuum hose for an after market A/C? Had a couple quick questions if I could PM someone.

OP is probably referring to installing a Hypercharger. There's already a vacuum line available for that and he evidently can't find it.
