Thanks ketchup, I recently changed over my 2511 to 3/8 .043 bar and chain and it worked really well but when I put that straight shot muffler on it became a whole new saw. As long as the straight shots are not bad for the chainsaws I guess the loudness is the only downfall then. Good to know...

I recently purchased some of these straight shot mufflers for my echo 2511, Stihl 362 , and a couple other saws. Tried them out and they work awesome, I can actually lean into my 2511 now and it doesn't big down. The 362 is a beast with these mufflers. My concern is there has to be a lack of...

Thanks Calcutta, I was able to modify my bar yesterday and it seems to work awesome. Only difference is I did not have to elongate the original tensioner pinholes on my bar I just had to drill two extra holes about a half inch away from the originals. That sucker is spitting oil off the tip so...

Turns out I use Stihl chain 61 pmm3 on my 194's so I think I will try the 3/8 .043 first. Also I use the 3/8 .043 50 link bar on my 194's so I have some extras. The steel bar part number that was posted on another thread is 3005 000 3909 but my bar part number is 3005 008 3909, both are 50 link...

You would think it would be at the top of the list on one of them but not sure. Maybe I am just a couple...

That's the funny thing , I can't even find my thread when I go to the chainsaw forum, I don't know which sub forum it is in so I just keep checking my notifications to see if someone posts. When I posted the thread I just clicked on chainsaws and then started the thread but not sure which sub...

Yes I'm thinking I might go 1/4 just was hoping for some feedback on what 1/4 setup you guys are using. Also found a echo/ Oregon 3/8 .043 bar and chain matching setup for a 2511 on eBay for only $50 so I was considering that route also

Hey guys new to this site, tried posting on arboristsite but didn't get any response so hoping some of you guys can help me out. I'm wanting to change my bar and chain on my 2511 t and trying to figure out if I should go with 1/4 or just stay with 3/8 and step it down to .043? Would like to...
