Hi,
After time spent skulking around on this site having my questions answered, I decided to create an account and get involved.
I recently got my hands on a Stihl 660 with a mind to milling and the occasional big tree.
Knowing how hard milling is on saws, and wanting to give mine the best chance at longevity, I’ve been looking at muffler mods and their benefits.
However I don’t just want to drill out the output and chop up the baffles and be done with it, I want to find out what difference it makes with running temperature and any change in sound.
I’ve also got a husky 560xp and 236 that I might do the same to, just out of curiosity.
And I want to put up all my results here to help the next guy who decides to have a stab at entry level saw modding.
So my question (finally), am I in the right place on this thread, or should I go somewhere else on here?
Sorry for the waffle
Thanks Lads
