    New Release: MaxFlow under lid "MINI" Filter Kit for Stihl 500i & 661

    I appreciate the question. We’ve heard that request before, and we do offer both orange and black covers for the 661 and orange covers for all of our Legacy saw models. The black Pro‑Series cover has really become part of our trademark look, and I’m reluctant to give up that visibility. Out in...

    New Release: MaxFlow under lid "MINI" Filter Kit for Stihl 500i & 661

    sawmikaze, you’re right. The Semi‑Pro Series kits — including the new “Mini” — were designed from a clean sheet for users who prefer the stock look of the 500i or 661. We could have simply squeezed a filter under the OEM cover, but that’s never been our approach. It took a lot of development...

    New Release: MaxFlow under lid "MINI" Filter Kit for Stihl 500i & 661

    Kalispell365, thanks for the question. Yes—every component in our MaxFlow kits is designed and manufactured in the USA. All filter elements are produced here in Oregon, and we design and fabricate every part of our system in‑house rather than relying on imported or repurposed pieces. Regarding...

    New Release: MaxFlow under lid "MINI" Filter Kit for Stihl 500i & 661

    For nearly a year, we have been telling MS500i operators about our upcoming "MINI" under cover air filter. Just wanted to share our new product now available worldwide — the MaxFlow MINI Semi‑Pro High‑Flow Filter Kit for the MS500i and MS661. This is a compact under‑cover foam system designed...

    661 Max Flow

    I have no personal experience with this product, but I do not recommend multi use oils. Foam and fabric oils are completely different and generally fabric (gauze) oils will NOT work with our elements. I do like Belray the best. In addition, I agree with redoakneck to use oils from a bottle...

    17 tanks on 661 max flow so far! update: 25 tanks!!!

    The 064 was the first saw that got a Maxflow (Holeshot) kit and is near and dear to my heart. The cover mold was hand made and is a little (ahem) rough. There was no CNC back then. Unfortunately I don't plan a redesign on the 064 anytime soon. Just not enough of them around to justify the mold...

    17 tanks on 661 max flow so far! update: 25 tanks!!!

    Your point is spot on and I would never have thought of that. I just assumed that if you were buying an individual replacement element that you would have already bought the kit, where we do talk about oiling in the instructions. But you know that "assume" issue. I'll get that implemented as...

    17 tanks on 661 max flow so far! update: 25 tanks!!!

    Redbull661, Thanks to you and the other testers we were able to develop a superior filter kit for the 661. Part of the secret was a better fitting cover that distributes the airflow around the filter element so that it doesn't allow spotty buildup areas. As you have demonstrated here, it is...

    661 Max Flow

    Moparmyway and Redbull661, ( and others who helped too) Thank you for all the input and suggestions concerning the final version of this kit. I thought it was good after the first one was made, but it took nine more versions to get it right! The first shipment of kits are out ( ask your...

    New MaxFlow Air Filter Kit For stinl ms 661

    We appreciate all the support that professional sawyers have given us over the years. It is hard to believe how long it has been since the first 064 kit was released. Times have changed and the cost of tooling has gone up 10X. We held off to assure that the 661 was going to be accepted by the...
