Crash and Burn
Id say the Kita is gonna pull the best, cause its ported right?
But Id rather see the 390 win it all

Normal load
Max load
What you can't see is that the 660 feels considerably stronger in the cut under max load than what the times suggest.

- 7901 by a wide margin
- 390 by a few hundredths
- 660 almost identical to 390
Max load
- 7901
- 660 by a considerable amount less than the 390
- 390

Brad, what is your prediction on the fastest saw after the port work?
Guess the video is proving the 7900 may be the best buy for the $.
LETS GO 390XP!!!

One moment, please. If I understand the original post, these comparisons are a ported 7901 against a stock 660 and stock 390. Correct? If so, the results are about what one would expect.
I'm interested to see how they'll do against each other when all are ported.
If my assumption that the 7901 is ported and the other saws are stock at the point of this post is incorrect, please correct me. I read the first few posts when they were mounted with great interest but am unwilling to dogpaddle through the detritus of what came after.
Definitely eager to see the vid of them going head to head after they're all ported. Frankly, considering the balderdash typical of this type of speculative thread, I'd be VERY happy to see the final comparison vids posted IN A NEW THREAD so enquiring minds don't have to filter the shytestorm to get to the diamonds.
Again, correct me if I'm wrong about the mods/stock, but this thread should not have been started until all the mods were done and the saw vids produced. With the final results not done, this thread is nothing more than masturbation. In other words, shut up until you got something definitive to say.
I'm just saying.
Thanks!

I'm looking for it to be a different outcome after the porting is done. But wait, The 2 big saws are getting a woods port and the kita has a major port correct?

What you can't mod three saws by what say midnight? LOL I am surprised that you got them out as soon as you did after porting that 346
That was outlined in the first post:greenchainsaw: The 7901 was done before this idea was ever hatched. So now we're comparing a favorite 80cc class saw to a couple 90cc clas saws, first stock, and then ported.

The only difference will be that the Kita has a popup and the other two will not. Porting will be similiar.

I read the first bunch of posts. So my understanding of the situation is correct. What went on between the first posts and these last posts is moot. Masturbation. Circle jerk.
Since the 7901 had already been ported, I don't care darn giggly about how it compares with the other stock saws. I care how it compares with the other saws once they've been ported.
I hope a new thread will be started when those ports/vids are available. Until then, it's just one saw ho yakking at another saw ho. Ho needs that?

Some around here have been saying this for a WHILE now.
It has even been called the "Undisputed King of Bang for the Buck"!
