Porting an MS200t

[bob]

and i suppose they are not as noisy and do not damage your hearing

[Pete Mctree]

Not strictly true. Ported saws last longer, as they run cooler.

 

I ported my old saw- then my new one, then every saw i have.

So revving it’s warangas off and producing a shed load of torque dosen’t do them any harm then?

There is no increase in rpms- the increase is in torque.

 

As for damage, the extra heat produced by restricted gas flow would surley do more damage?

 

 

For the record Stihl produce dual port mufflers for a large proportion of there saws for the US and AUS market

I have done my two 020ts, they run very well.

Been porting saws for years now with no ill effects.

However, choking up the exhaust and stifling the saw does tend to shorten the lifespan.

 

Bob, who cares about noise? thats what ear defenders are for.

Besides, I started with the old square metal 020, that used to make your ears bleed at 20 paces:ohmy:

Pete, what's a muffle?

Pete, what's a muffle?

 

it's a fluffer for your saw- helps it rise to it's full potential:001_tt1:

I always remember riding around on derestricted 50cc mopes, much more fun than the standard version and how did we make them run better? by helping them breath better.
