No, but it sounds fun. I just Google image searched it.
If you want to take it further, Google for "chainsaw racing".
I can build you one of these if you really want.
Here is my build thread.

Ashful, you can remove the spark screen, enlarge existing opening, then reinstall the screen, easy enough to do.. Faster up carb a little, go cut..

I remember when I did my 360 I researched it and there was a specific amount to open it up. I don't remember what it was it was a while ago but I would do some research before I started cutting. Then again my results were not that impressive lol at least on my 360. Other saws responded better. With a 200/020 all you have to do is remove the screen and it will feel like someone stuck a supercharger on it.
No more than 80% of exhaust port opening, if I remember right..
You could'nt get 80% using the stock location anyway..
Yeah, that’s my target. Will be achieved by combination of opening stock port and adding a second port, screen, and deflector on other side. I will actually overshoot the 80%, by whatever I determine the screen’s fractional reduction to be.
