Since this is a race forum, I figured someone on here has to have ported there chainsaw. I am looking to send my MS88O in to have it ported. They are saying a gain of 30-40% over stock. Just wondering if anyone here has done any work to there chainsaws and was it worth it.
Ya' know, after putting a minute's thought into this I think this could easily become the thread of the week.
no, the one I was looking to do is a gas saw. I have some 2 stroke saws but never really thought about putting an expansion chamber on it.
I'm confused. Your 2 stroke saws run on unicorn semen or something? What else would you put an expansion chsmber on, other than a 2 stroke?
Really? Have you tried metal? (I've just never needed anything larger than an 064 (w 36' bar), and that's for big ass stuff. Better beef up those arms; the powerhead ain't light. Something makes me think this isn't really a utilitarian-type question...)
holy brain fart... yes I know 2 stroke is gas with pre mix...... I live on a large farm and also get large trees brought in from a neighbor who owns a landscaping company. We heat our house and garage with a large central boiler furnace that runs from our garage to our house. We sell a bunch of wood as well. We got the 880 from a friend that was an arborist who helps us cut up trees since he heats his house with wood as well.
Expansion chambers have been used on 4-cycle engines. Before the science of calculating header length/diameter and collectors was able to get the same response i.e. tuning for a particular power band, w/o the need for converging and diverging cones.
I can't for the life of me understand why someone would mod a 880 ??? I don't even want to run one... or a 660... My biggest saw is a 362. Yes, you can port, muffler mod, and any other mod but unless you are cutting 48" or bigger trees, I don't even understand you running a 880. Just my .02. Carry on with this "best of".... Lol
Dude, why would anyone ride a Hayabusa much less put a turbo on it and then NOS? Because they f@ckin' can!
