Bafflectomizing my Thruxton

I put this over in club cafe but I thought someone here might be able to help Seen lots about this here on triumphrat, and I have a good idea as to what I will be doing. I have a plug for the end of the pipe as a guide for the hole saw
so I don't get all catiwhompas on the hole. But what kind of hole saw and what size?

Jake,don`t use a holesaw on the Thrux cans.Just an angle grinder with a sanding disc.Run it round and round on the very end of the can.Don`t grind too hard or in one place too long or it will blue.In a couple minutes you will start to see a ring where the end piece is welded to the main body.Keep going until it seperates and then pull out the end core.It will leave you a nice clean Predator sized opening and allow entry to perf some of the baffles if you want..
