I have an almost new Stihl 064AV saw which I bought at a dealer liquidation sale back in 1995 for $600. I have purchased the upgraded larger HD2 air filter OEM parts and am going to install those. I was thinking of it needing possibly also a more open better breathing exhaust system other than the stock single opening one it has now. The muffler has the welded-on safety grill from the factory, so I was thinking of purchasing one of these dual port mufflers off of ebay. The saw has maybe 30 hours on it and is an absolute beast of a powerful saw. Just started it up after 8 years of sitting, unbelievable. All the talk about the 500i made me think of getting this saw back into shape. During a large 130-foot red oak tree blow down cleanup my O36 PRO muffler modded retuned saw just stopped working. That turned out to be just a carb cleaning, and everything was back to normal. During that problem I just swapped the 20-inch bar to the 064, and WOW, what a wood cutting machine that was. If you could take a look and comment if this muffler is worth purchasing. I know I have to retune the saw after. Thanks for your interest and comments. Right now using the MS661 Magnum for all the heavy lifting.
