Now I feel like I've been lied to all these years. I was told that that little screen inside the muffler was a spark arrestor, but now I know it is part of the Anti-Suckback-System or ASS.
So his intention for the smaller port is not to create an exit for exhaust gas but to relieve vacuum created by the exhaust gas rushing out the exit orifice?
Oh my that is good stuff, I bet John Force or Kenny Bernstein would just love to pick his brain on that subject.

Actually I wouldn't find it so far fetched that it might be a good thing. Possibly creating some sort of scavenging effect. Something along the effects of why you get better preformence from dual exhaust when you install a balance pipe.
A couple years ago, my wife went way out and bought me the
Stihl insect vacuum attachment. Part # BS4U2
It hooks right onto the muffler.
Used it many times on the deck while having friends over
for adult beverages. (beer). It's on my 088.
Just start it up, ducttape at WOT, flick the suck switch, and leave it run
in the middle of the deck. It's quite the conversation piece too.
What's real fun, is to watch the look on their faces when I try to get the mosquito buzzing around their head. PRICELESS.
Thall? You moonlighting?
My wife (bless her heart), just the other day, for my birthday, in fact,
knew that our house stunk.
So, What did she do ???
Yup, bought the new Stihl Air Purification System. Part #BS4U2
Hooks right on to the muffler. Ducttape at WOT. right in the living room.
It sucks out all airborn allergies right out of the air.
I use it on the 088 for the whole house.
If I'm just doin the babies room, the 032AV will suffice.
NOTE: DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME !!
IT'S ONLY A JOKE.

Me won suck back :smoking:
A balance pipe allows equalization between the two pipes because the pulses in each pipe do not happen simultaneously. If we're talking about a single cylinder chainsaw, both exhaust outlets are going to experience a pulse at the same time. I don't see the benefit other than it allows more exhaust outlet area, something a single opening would do fine. Maybe I'm missing something.
Yeah, I was gonna say the same thing-it looks like a decent idea, and even maybe well done, but he lost me on the suck back and siphoning parts....
Dude, I sure wish I could rep you for those posts. Maybe someone will "hit" you for me. I have literally been laughing out loud through a lot of this thread!!
Um...I'll stick with the factory DP cover, thanks.

For the reacharound, you have to have handle bars like this-
