Can this saw pull a 14" bar or 16" bar ?

Before you could do that, you'd have to find a 3/8 Picco sprocket kit for it. They are not available in the US. Besides, it's only a 23cc saw. They do run amazingly well for what they are though.
How much do they cost if you could get one ??
I do not have a source for them. A member from Australia was kind enough to send me one. I think a couple other members got theirs from the UK.
No it won't in my opinion... awesome saw lb for lb but just doesn't have enough for a 14 or 16.
Do you have a part number by chance?
I know several folks here have obtained the parts for the 3/8" lowpro, has Anyone offered up feedback on how WELL it works on these saws?
Here is the eBay auction I got mine from. The part number is correct but the description is all wrong.

Go back and view post #72 ... then ask how he got one.
I'm sorry, your post doesn't make any sense to me? What you've suggested is exactly how it went. I saw his post . . . and then asked how he got it?
You're right. I see now that my reply did not post in the appropriate sequence, so what I said is worthless. Nevermind.

When my Dad taught me how to catch birds by putting salt on their tail, I was surprised how well it worked until the birds got onto me.

Hello everyone! To anyone that wants a ⅜ Lo pro sprockets for the ms150tc I can get them and ship to your door. I'm in Australia and work at Stihl. I got one of these saw a few weeks ago. Been running it stock doing a mm today and advance timing later this week. Then I'll be doing the change to a 12" bar with ⅜ lp

I am running a Mastermind ported ms151 as my go to and have 2 150's. Couldn't do without one either.
Has anyone made any direct comparisons between the MS150 and MS151, both stock and with muffler mod/ignition timing advance? Does the 151 really have a 10% increase in power and a 15% increase in torque, as advertised by Stihl?

My ported 151 has been a dog lately. Maybe it needs a carb. Filter's clean, high adjustment is turned all the way in without over torqueing it. Never ran it without being ported so no comparison to my other 150's that had basic mods...likely by you. When it was running good it was noticeably better tho.
