A few additions.

A tuned pipe, square filed chain, proper rakers, minimum bar length required to clear log, 8 tooth sprocket, .020 squish, 385 carb, nitro propane mixed with 93 octane gas. The pipe is not exactly a working saws part, however a tuned pipe really wakens a saw up regardless of port work.

Nitro propane is an oxygen additive (less oxygen than nitro methane) that mixes with gas. Nitro methane will not mix with gas. More oxygen allows more gas to be burned in a given volume and releasing more energy to the chain. Because nitro propane has less oxygen there is low risk of the saw continuing to run when the kill switch is off like nitro methane saws do.

You will absolutely leave a 460 in the dust and have a saw that sounds like a dirt bike.
 
Talking modded saws is equal to talking politics and religion as well as " my chain is sharper . Than yours"
Endless, haha.

Yeah that pretty much sums it up. Unless you've been to a gtg like the 372 build off where there was 20 saws from a variety of builders and styles to see what you would like best.
