Re: Modded Saws VERY loud, and actually loose power as back pressure is required.
With engines that are manufactured to their near maximum horsepower, such as 2 stroke racing dirt bikes, they have a large expansion chamber that is "tuned". Very delicate stuff to modify or change. They aren't limited (at the time) to the emissions and noise debate required for on road vehicles etc.
For a chainsaw it would be impracticle to have a tuned pipe, although serious racing saw do have them.
I keep my mods "least change for most gain". Remembering these are all "working" saws where I still expect maximum reliability and functionality.
I always figured if the mod didn't work, just reweld up the pipe!!!!!! LOL |
