Has anyone ever ported a leaf blower?
I’ve got an old echo es2100 that would benefit from a boost [emoji1]

Yes, my own BG85, goes like a good one and has plenty more clout than standard

There you go !  thought so

you have any videos of the 660 with that exhaust running?

[spudulike]

Yup, one of three I got from a local gardener, all non runners, fixed all three, sold two and ported one for me. The strimmer also has a muffler mod

No, not yet but it is about the loudest saw you are likely to hear.

Excellent, so what did you alter?
Is a basic exhaust mod worth doing or are we in the realms of advancing the timing?
