Jonsered 2153 VS Husqvarna 550XP

[Mastermind]

I have some interesting info on the 550XP you guys will want to know about.......

Videos coming up within the hour.

This is going to be a long hour, lol. I hope your luck was better than mine. Of course, my 346 is probably stronger than the 2153 your testing it against JK! Here's to hoping you did MM only tests before porting it.

My friend......you are the guy I was hoping to see.

What would raising the exhaust do to the torque this saw makes? :msp_mellow:

How's the popup going Brad? As an aside, before you even ported your 550 I made a promise to myself that when I ported mine I wasn't going to change any timing at first. I love how the saw runs, so I would just be looking for more of the same. Right or wrong I will try that first.




Video done yet Randy????

So that was what you was working on, when you went "stealth" today!

Anyway, the propotions in the vid seems way off, what's up with that? :confused2:

I was hoping for that John. This seems extremely low even though I hadn't started this saw before I took this reading.

I don't know Niko. They look correct on my screen.

Randy dang it I tooooooold you that green fuel cap would hold that 2153 back.

Looks like the log is much higher than it is wide, and similar propotions with the saw and what else is in the vid. :msp_confused:

id say that'll make me a hell of a limber casue I got other saws for stuff that size. Everyone gets a turn.:hmm3grin2orange:

 

[Joe Kidd]

Same here ST, strange proportions.

 

[FATGUY]

try and focus on the important parts people.... (We'll deal with Randy's horrible cinematography later)

 

[Tzed250]

Randy, I just checked mine. 130 psi cold on my Snap-on gauge. If it was my 028 I would think "huh..needs a rebuild".

I assume it is some software compatibility issue, as I have seen similar with other vids on here before.

However, let's forget that, and return to the original topic- that 2153 looked seriously fast! :msp_smile:

 

[bryanr2]

I got 12 seconds both cuts on the 2153 and 17 seconds first cut and 18 seconds second cut for the 550. I may be off but I had my pen and paper out and watched twice.

 

[FATGUY]

36 sec for 2 cuts on the 550 and only 25 sec for the Johnny?
