575 woods Cheers Pete B

[Pro Gard]

Ive received my 575 back From Pete, woods port, carb tweak and flow to the head.

 

The saw is running amazingly now, pulls the 28" in the beech I was felling today as well and as quick as it did the 20" before. The tourq and speed are superb and sounds sweet.

 

I'm delighted with it and will be getting Pete to do a woods on my 441 now.

 

Top bloke Pete, Cheers.

[Pro Gard]

£100 plus the postadge for the full works. Worth every penny.

Hmmm. I wonder how the 575 compares to the 372?

according to pete... more torque for running long bars, but not nearly as quick in the little stuff

[Mr Ed]

I usually use mine with longer bars for hardwoods. Torque I like.

[tree_beard]

Torque I like.

 

torque is good:thumbup1: rpm's are ok, but its nice to be able to lean on a saw.

 

the new stratocharged engines are meant to be torquier than the equivelent displacement 2-smokers, and easier on fuel... lots of people werent happy with the 575xp tho, thus the 576xp less than a year later, seems to be a problem free saw now.

 

however... a new strat engined 372xp should be here within the next 12 months, to satisfy the legion of die-hard fans that dont want to move on, while covering future emissions legislation BS
