Great video!!!! I agree with you on all things you said.I raced 100cc two stroke go karts and the expansion chamber is a huge gain.I have Husqvarna 2100 which began as a 100 cc saw.The late ECBurt built the saw with a cut head and large alcohol carb and a pipe and it is an insane saw.....I believe it to be a early 80s hot saw ....I have a 066 I plan to put a pipe on.I collect old logging saws ...I buy 70cc and larger saws to rebuild and play with.Or should I say I use to....I have over thirty of these pro saws mostly husky or sthil .I recently stopped after this many saws I found myself with several of the same type saws.....Great video I enjoyed it!

I completely agree about your opening statements, when you work hard, your cloths, boots, and hands show it.. I just recently had to go out and finally buy new work boots and pants because my old ones were past the point of even being work cloths anymore. I agree.. there are a lot of fakes out there on KZread and if your a “real” worker then it’s not hard to see who the fakers are. Thanks for the shout out buddy and keep up the great work.

I'm not a husqvarna fan. I personally don't think they are as reliable as a Stihl. The dealer support is very poor in my area too. The 550xp does look nice. Dynojoe tested one an it was around 5.5hp which is 60cc hp out of a 50cc saw. The 562 was problematic. They may have that fixed. I think the 550xp would be a nice saw since you don't cut firewood. It would actually be overkill for you.

Nice review I’ve been cutting with STIHL ms 660 ever since they have been released they are the most reliable saw I have ever owned. I’m lucky to own 2 660 & 1 066 I was thinking of putting these pipes on one of my 660 . The question I want to ask are you getting more top end rpm with these pipes on the 660 ?

How do you calculate the size of expansion chamber per engine?

I built a Farmertec 660 and I can't believe the difference that pipe makes. It sounds awesome! A stock 660 cuts fast enough for me. I put a Rippa muffler on mine I bought from ebay for $55.00. It sounds pretty nice. How much was the pipe? Thanks for sharing and let us know how it holds up.

I'm amazed at how much faster your muffler modded farmer tec 660 is over an already fast stock 660. I got into using bigger saws like the 660 to cut firewood simply because it made the job much faster. But I'm an experienced chainsaw user like you. My favorite stihl is still the 026/ms 260 though. I don't have any experience on the new 261...............yet! Are you gonna put out a test cutting video on the farmertec 880 you built. I can't wait if you are.
