Use a 7/32 file for stihl 3/8, it will clean the gullet better (yes I know they say use that weird size 13/64, you can use that when the chain gets worn down more). It’s not easy beating what you get out of the box with RS, husky C chain or EXL for the average user who isn’t experienced at filing though...

13/64 is for .325 in my book.

I can file round with 7/32 and make it wax those factory cutters.

Is that an 034 super? 24" bar? Tell us more. I think we wer talking and we were working on the same saw.
On a Husky 84dl is 24", it grows an inch on a Stihl;). I don't intend to use it regularly with a 25 but I just wanted to see how it would do. I say untouched jug but when I cleaned the carbon out of the exhaust I hit the bevel on the exhaust roof with the diamond ball. It's so flat there's such little bevel I didn't want to tempt fate. Other than that I did what a couple members here familiar with the model have recommended. BGD, TA, opened the muffler, and a popup piston. I think you could hear in the vid how quickly it revs up.
*edit* Worth noting also is the mesh filter from Canada. I've read that they make quite a difference. I'll do my best to break it in before Joe does his dyno day and we can find out.
