Nah i sold the tonton locally!

Both sft and nxt use the same screw. The sft screw needs a washer though.

Im talkin about drilling a hole with the same screw threads right behind the current sft va hole so nxt va will fit bc they have a pin

Youll probably get sealing problems with the air holes around the VA.

Nah on the nxt va's there a plug/fat pin that seals it. I was wondering who can do that for me? I dont have access to a milling machine

You dont need a milling machine you just need a drill, a tap and accurate meassurments. A center punch wouldn't hurt to use either to get the bit started and a drill stop so the bit don't go to deep.

like stated above

drill press, center punch and good meassurements, than you can do it at home

If you fell uncomfortable with that, try to get a hold of CS900, he did that exact same mod for me.

Well, the O-ring seals it, not the actual stud on the VA. The location of which the air travels through the VA into the body is the same between the SFT and NXT, only difference is where the screw is located to secure it.

Measure once, twice, maybe three times if need be! It is easily done with the right tools, you just need to be confident in yourself.

Anyone with a drill press should be able to handle this. Don't try it with a hand drill.
