I am working on a little Echo chainsaw, trying to optimize it....I took off the muffler and got rid of all the "webbing" in the baffle(?). I also ground back the shroud over the exhaust hole some to reduce flow restriction. Maybe that needs to be done more(???). I tried it with just that and noticed some improvement. I know some guys drill holes straight into the front of the muffler. But I want to make sure I'm doing the right thing before I do that. What is the best pathway for the exhaust? Should I do more to this muffler? Thanks for the help....
