Anyone using modded saws?

[Charlieh]

thats a US spec muffler to start with though isnt it? as the pipe is where mine is as standard, but i dont have the spark arrestor set up on top

Yes it is, I ordered one from my dealer as they are totaly hollow, which means no gutting out the muffler

the us one are a very easy muffler to mod, I did a euro muffler (pipe) and thier is allot more work to mod them as their is a "middle wall" in them that you have to gutt out to max the flow.

the euro muffler I modded did work just as fine as the us one, but I sold that saw so thats why I did a new one to new 372xpg I bought

ah right thats good to know as i hadnt had the muffler off yet to look at it, so i need to take the internals out then?

I have been told that porting the cylinder head of a 200t is probably not worth the effort but polishing the import and exhaust ports is worthwhile to improve gas flow.

Pete, is the original exit for the 200t exhaust blanked off or is it retained?

[Charlieh]

im guessing you use something like a dremmel for polishing? they are handy bits of kit

 

i dont really want to do anything to my 020t at the moment but the 192T might be a potential project, my main focus will be my 372xp

I retained it carl. It's work in process as i'm going to cut away some of the now excess metal

If you want to get the most out of your muffler mod you at least need to enlarge existing whole/wholes inside the muffler, best is if you can get rid f the wall inside it.

A dremel and a cordless drill is what I use to mod my mufflers

Cheers for the info pete i split my exhaust open last night and see the funnel type exit i drilled my hole exactly where you did right on the bend so it goes straight out from funnel neck.
