I call B.S. on Stihl. My dyno doesn't lie. MS 461 is king over MS 660

I'd have to agree.

My MS261C-M is the one saw I have that will not be sold.

And of course there are a couple others......for personal reasons.

IDK bout that, 288 was the last husky i liked.........all in what ya like.
and yes, i consider most 288s stronger than MOST 064s....but not all. and yes i still prefer the fit of stihl.

I'll do that test if I can find a 3 ft log. I'd bet my paycheck that the 461 would still win.

How much do you make?

Enough. Blessed

Enough. Blessed

And when you start making and selling saw dynos you'll make a few extra dollars as well

 

[treesmith]

The next test can be a brand new 461 and a broken in and ported 660, just to even it up a little

It's always nice to see some data to go along with opinions. Good work!

I haven't been following your work but have you done any testing on common muffler mods to see what kind of gains can be had there? It seems like a very common mod that people make to their saws but I haven't seen any testing or timing to validate gains.

The gains vary between saw models. Some mufflers already flow enough for a standard saw.
