Uh Oh Husqvarna 395

[Dub11]

After seeing the pics posted of a 395 muffler split open, I am 100% confident the method I chose of adding the second port ahead of the factory port will get it breathing easier. The second port I made is as big or bigger than the original behind it only it doesn't force the exhaust out that funnel.

So just to clarify cuz I'm slow. You added a second port ahead of the first and left the origial port untouched?

Yes Sir that's correct, but I did trim the "teeth" out of the factory outlet deflector too.

And what is point of teeth? What do they do?

Maybe sound deflection? I have noticed them on alot of huskys.

True
The only thing that I don’t like about another deflector in front is that it’s right on top of the wood that you’re cutting, and the exhaust bounces back into your face

That is why I like the tubular exits the most, they direct the exhaust moar betterer

Honestly, I'm not sure. Possible they play a role in spark arresting?

I did have to raise the metering lever to get rid of the hesitation that showed up when I swapped mufflers

You need the front kick stand Dave! I bet that sucker is loud. Braaaaaaaaap!

Funny you should mention that. This is the 1 model husky I've owned that didn't need a kick stand.

 

[XP_Slinger]

True, I used the wrong term. It’s more of a case protector.

 

[Beer Gut]

I want a kick stand. Lol. I know what it is, what is it really called?

 

[Beer Gut]

Sorry guys project is dead for now. Waiting for muffler, carb tool, and deflector now.
