    Great job on the testing! I just got an Egan straight shot for my 661 and can’t wait to fire it up. Thanks again and keep up the great work on the channel.

    One thing not covered in this vid is fuel mileage. If you're stopping to refuel more often, then you're not saving any time over the course of the workday. Great comparison!
  • Wow, what a great test! Numbers don’t lie. Very well executed sir!
  • @Treestouch
    Well made, I learned a great deal from your research and testing. Thank you, Arborist in PA.

    One of the most honest reviews I have seen on these modifications. Great idea how you weighted the saw.
  • You answered my questions, I was stuck with my options. Sticking with thee stock. With respect. Great video with the honesty. " 🙏 ".
  • Now that’s an honest video. I was about to get the straight shot. I just cut firewood for the house. I’m gonna stick with the stock muffler. Thanks for your honesty!
  • Hey Devin great video! Great idea taking off the dogs lol. Hope to see you at the next gathering!
  • Nice job and good information. Keep up the great work my man ! 👍
  • I caught a lot of grief over this same test and got the same results, love the video keep it up
  • @timberzach1324
    I appreciate this video good stuff I've been interested in both and a lot of great points one thing they have in common is quality
  • I like the idea of getting maximum air flow while running the stock exhaust. Seems like those cool looking add-ons are a moot point while increasing air flow is better for engine longevity.

    I know this was 2 years ago. I think it's valid to point out that the after market mufflers most likely each require a custom tuning to balance out the change in exhaust flow. IMO, this test only showed the advantage a tuned muffler/engine combo can make. If you redid this, tuning for each muffler before you run, then I believe you'll find more value in the results as they'll each be running as intended.
  • Awesome, unbiased, comparison. I dont think it can be done any better, and the numbers dont lye. Myself I've discovered that instead of a dual port or some 3 port mufflers a single large port works much better on the saws I've ported. Kind of like a 3 inch exhaust on a car flows better than dual 2 inch. Less surface area and boundary layer I think. Great video I loved it. Thanks.

    My old ms360 , 20 inch bar , oiler turned all the way up since new and every tank of gas is 3/4 tank of oil used . It cuts 30 inch maple rounds in seconds. Once the ring’s seated it became a beast vrs weight for hours of cutting. I cut a lot of wood on a new chain before it’s first grind.
  • @troopygino
    Very interesting! I was looking at getting one of these but if in a real world scenario its not only slower but loud as hell I think i'll give it a pass haha. Fairplay nice scientific approach here.
  • @Agent40oz
    Literally just borrowing my buddies ms461 with a wcs and just searched to see how different stock versus the bark box sound and wound up on this great informational video 😂👍
  • I believe the stock out performs in real world because instead of straight cut you are dogging and loading the saw up more… this means you drop rpm and rely on torque and smaller port with higher velocity always equates to more mid to low end torque. Great video man
