I can guess what happened during that "shut down".....:cool2:
No Niko, I've not turned a screw on the 550 yet....except for changing the rim and checking compression.

OK.....I mixed up the videos.
So what's he sayin guys? :msp_confused:
Lets hope not. I want my 2153 to walk away as the "hero of this thread". :hmm3grin2orange:
Very interesting so far. As torquey as the 550's appear to be in other vids, I'm surprised at how low their compression is.
the plot thickens....
I don't really have time to port this 550....but in the interest of science I feel as though I must. :cool2:
Wait till you see one with 175psi.
I have 10 saws here to port.......I do one a day on a good day.......I really shouldn't port this 550........right? :msp_sneaky:
looking at the bottom of the page here, it seems 25 inquiring minds want to know....
OK.....I mixed up the videos.

If your real quiet, and listen real close, you can hear the "Rev-Boost™" do absolutley nothing....
That right there is something most do not realize. To those that may think porting is to expensive, one solid day invested in a saw not to mention all the timing R&D that goes into ever different model.....coupled with a 2000 hour engine life. The cost is well worth gains in production.

Randy I say run the snot out of her before you port it, she looks real tight, they all are when they're young.:msp_smile:
