Bigger porting would be the way to go wouldn't it? Just wondering why you'd use mesh to further restrict it.

i am going to make another outlet, that i want a mesh over to stop debris entering, i dont want to go down the route of increasing the porting of the cylinder intake and exhuast ports its a bit to serious really for a work saw

Can be fun trying to get more power by porting.....'cept when you remove too much metal.

 

Good luck.
