I would think three new 335 far superior to one 200T
I know for sure 2 335's where not, my MS180 has been a heck of lot better
saw than our 2 335's ever where.

Stepped in what? Me thinks you've done had a few to drink. I guess you should go back and read my posts. Yes, I've ported a 200T, and I also told you I haven't ported any other tophandle saws. I was less than impressed with the porting results on the 200T, and will not port them for anyone else. BTW, they're a piece of cake to work on, not hard at all. The only other top handle I've had was a Redmax 3500. I modded the muffler, sold it to a tree guy, and the loved it. And they used 200Ts too. They were quite impressed with it.
What does that have to do with this discussion? Why do you so often have to resort to personal attacks in a discusion to make your point? Then you turn around and behave yourself for a while, then you're back at the attachs again? Are you drunk, bi-polar, or what?
But that doesn't prevent me from having an oppinion that the 200T is overpriced.
Yeap an my opion on you porting saws are over priced if you get more than a 75.00 because thats all a muffler modd is worth IMO and porting on a worksaw is a joke!!!! Doe you really get that much more production out of a modded saw i don't think so! Later Troy
IMO if you run a 200 in stock form against any stock saw in its class it will out perform and out last any other saw on the market and will always crank when you are up in a tree an really depending on it. Now on to a modded saw you might be right Brad a modded saw will probly smoke it but not for long when it has no durability in it when you modd it!!!!
Hell if it's anything other than a stihl 200 it didn't have durabilty to start with so there's no way it will have durability when you get done with it!!! Later Troy!

How des modding a saw properly lower it's durability? Detailed answer please...
Are you experienced enough in sustained felling to comment on modded saws? Modding a 200T may not increase production but I can assure you it can on other saws. You're pretty new here by the looks of it but I can assure you on a 7,800 odd tree felling job I did that a ported saw increased productivity by around 15-20%. Trees per hour, day, and overall were recorded, fuel usage was recorded etc etc. There are many people running modded saws in the timber industry.
If you look, he's been around since '07, longer than you, just doesn't seem to say a whole lot most times.
But I also have to disagree with his statement. A PROPERLY ported saw will greatly increase production! The only stock saw I own is a 200t, just because there are so little gains to be made.
My modded BB 046 will easily keep up with a stock 064 and is just a tick slower than a stock 660.
My Husky 350 is at least eight years old, ported for four of those years, I tear it down now and again for giggles, still looks new inside! I poorly ported it myself, and I'll take it over a 346 any day! So I have to say porting doesn't diminish life of the saws at all.

Well well my my the echo I had before the 335 was better than them all, go echo!
Here's the little old MS180 with 16 inch .325 bar and semi-chisel chain
cutting seasoned White Oak, IMO not to bad for a 31.8cc home owner saw

Tommy not gloat?Surely you jest.
I saw that too. I promise I won't gloat, I won't pester Rope, I will merely get his 200T up and running and back to him ASAP. Really thats all. Well ok, I might poke him in da ribs just a tad, not in public though, I'm not that mean. Well ok, maybe just a tad but all in good humor mind you,LOLOLOL
No seriously Rope is a working man, gotta respect him for that. That little saw let him down. Beings I sell those things I got no problem at all taking care of whatever is wrong with it. They aren't that hard to work on nor require alot time to figure out. I figure I'll have it up and running in less than a hour so its no big deal I'm offering ole Rope.
Playing around on the net and having alittle fun is one thing, helping out a freind is something else and I consider Rope a freind of mine even if he is a bonified Husky low life, a solid orange evil doer, a slap in the face to us Stihl men, men of fine charactor and processing outstanding product knowledge I might add, yes be he is all those ugly things we at Stihl frown upon he's still a working man and for that alone I forgives him and respect him and will gladly help him out, what are friends for I always say,
Lol Tom I sorta enjoy havin that broke down saw tell ya what bud it used to be I had more help when Manual was still here I sorta miss the fun of them days lol
Good looking saw there Rope.
This is all you need to go with it,
:hmm3grin2orange::hmm3grin2orange::chainsawguy::chainsawguy:
Tom keep the saw if I had the ship I would forget about this stuff
Yeah I recall Manual, I use to like to fuss with him.
