You really had to ask? 044 running for $250 is a buy first thing.
I would be too. The 044 is a saw I'm missing from the collection.
Thats just how I got it $250 hard case two new chains dulled, but never sharpened. I felt of the head it was ice cold, it hit on the first pull, fliped the choke off and boom. I think I got a good deal. 25in bar.
Randy have you done work on these, It may be my first ported saw,lol you guys have runed me haha,
You may be quite content with the saw as is (not to say that you shouldn't have it ported).
My buddy and I were cutting yesterday on some green oak. Roughly 22", he was at one end and I at the other. Full comp on both saws, his a 660 25" bar and my 044 20".
My 12mm walked all over his saw. I thought that to be abit odd (thinking it may be his chain) so I grabbed my 660 with an 8pin. I think my 44 still out cut my own 660. I sharpen my chains so I know there's no discrepency there, just not sure why the 44 cut so much better.

No- you should send it to Randy and have him port it. Then and only then will it be "as good as it gets." DUH'RNot to keep asking questions, should I muffler mod or is it good as is. I took the muffler off its a open can, Just make the hole 80% or so and retune.
