SawTroll: You my friend are correct about the "open" filter for hot environments, but it was also developed for the chainsaws when Mt St Helens blew as none of the chainsaw manufacturers had air filters that would filter out the fine ash dust. Along came K&N with a washable type air filter that filtered out the very fine volcanic dust, I have seen Stihl, Husqvarna, Pioneer, Jonsered, and Sach Dolmar (just to name a few) all with K&N filters on them. If I remember correctly the only filters available up until then were of the fine nylon mesh type, now we have flocked filters available for almost every saw made.I have read that the "open" filter on the WC versions were originally meant for firefighting in the woods, in a hot environment, not for "normal" woodcutting - but I am far from sure.......

Also you are correct about the 930 Super being 4.8 Kw it should be 4.4 Kw or 4.5 Kw, do you agree? That was my typo and I will revise my listing to reflect the correct Kw rating.
My best guess is that it is about the same as the 288xp, ie about 4.5 kW, as you said.
I have never seen an "official" power rating for either the 910, 920 or 930.....
The 288XP is what I was comparing the 930 Super to as they are same cc size saws, I have used both and the only difference I noticed was the 288XP seemed to be a little less weight than the 930 Super (maybe my imagination).
The sister saw in Husqvarna's line to the 930 is the 181. They used the same ignition and clutch but that's where the similarities end. The 920/930 uses a different crank, piston, cylinder, case, and flywheel. The 920/930 is descended from the 910EVL which is descended from the 801/90e.SawTroll said:
