My new fav muffler mod.

[Wagnerwerks]

So this may not be new to some, but I just started doing these this way on my last few saws. It is kind of a bonus to have a hollow / bare muffler and this gives a bit of muffling but still a big ole pipe. The pipe does not block the initial exhaust, but the gasses have to wrap around the top to get to the diagonal inlet for the pipe. Its aimed to the front inside. No wild technical wizzardry, but it's easy and I thought someone may benefit from it even though it kind of reminds me of some of the old pioneer mufs.

That's my favorite style

I used to just stub in a 1" outlet, but I like the tone of these more and it cuts down on the flaming punky wood when I cut old oak logs. Lol

Very nice , looks good.

My hacked up saws 385 has that same 1" pipe style and it flows great and away from the operator/wood while cutting. Poulan 5200's have this mod factory.

I forgot about the 5200.... Nice.

I like how the long exit tube worked on my echo 510. Seem like it makes more lean on it torque

How does it sound?

How does it sound?

Not too bad for the operator. At least on my 385. Still loud as *f-word and sounds good

It's going on a mildly ported 385 I just built for my cousin so I'll get a video soon.

Its just like when you run open headers on a na car engine. The noise makes it sound more powerful but it needs some balls to not need any back pressure.

I can't say that for my old echo 510. It brought the note lower. I used a tube that close matched the venturi bore. Worked great but later the canister cracked at the flange where it meets the jug. Cheapest stock muffler I could find was 70 dollhairs so I went a different route and piped the Lil *s-word and it pulls pretty frickin good with a work chain. Sounds great looks like a rat rod. Best part of it is on facebook when ppl se the pic of it and displacement they think there bigger work saw is still faster till I ask them if they want to run for grabs, needless to say they back down real quick once I fire the Lil rat up.

Yes he does. Looks great..... Maybe even a little classy, if you can use that word to describe a saw.

The muffler looks so good, I might have to invest in new plastics!

Maybe I'll even cut wood with it someday
