Any of you guys do modifications to your saw? I see threads for "porting" and for muffler "mods". How many of you have done this? Is there a major difference? worth it?
thanks

smokinj said:This just doesnt hold water ported or not its still a chainsaw they dont look at you In anyway other way(it is what it is) if noise is an issue ported or not they will see you in the same light and the ported saw not making the none ported saw look bad. For example sunday A.M. if I start out with the 260 instead of the 460 the results will be the same! put the 7900 against a ported 7900 there is not enough of a differnce to be an issue what so ever with noise!

burntime said:Sorry, meant muffler mod. I did some reading and you can go 80% if the exhaust port. NOw that I have 2 saws I may try...
