Dyno is the ultimate tuning tool atleast for cars.
Damn right!
It's time to learn how to tune a carb. It's so easy even an arborist can do it.

There you go thats the same saw modded by Timberwolf Im betting its cutting nearer to 13000rpm than 9500.
Looks like the ported cut twice as fast going by the times.
So he basically just lost himself another customer because YOU do what YOU want with YOUR own stuff? Around here dealers will take any saw and fix it no matter what you do to it.
My dealer kind of seemed like they were against modding the muffler but not enough to act like that d'bag. I bought the parts from them today to do the muffler mod for the 361 on this site.

Does the arborist have to be ISA Certified ????

Who do you business with up there? Steve's in Lolo is the only decent shop I've found in the state yet.
I have not modded a chainsaw "yet", but have done minor work to my dirt bike. When dealing with expansion champers, it is the pick of the draw. Depending on how you want the engine to perform determines what pipe you put on the bike. Lets say you have a trail bike that never hits above 6,000 rpm. Then you get a pipe that is tuned for that rpm range. Now lets say you ride dunes on the west coast, then you get a pipe that is tuned around lets say 9,000 rpms depending on the bike. A chain saw is no different, as you are dealing with the amount of back pressure on the exhaust port. Even though the muffler is not near as efficient as a tuned pipe, the muffler's back pressure effects do change the power output on the engine. The only reason I know this is dealing with my kx500. I have changed the pipe, KIPS valve position, jets, air filter, and added a flywheel weight. The bike flat out hauls. grin
Another dealer that hasn't learned we are in the service industry. While he is in his right to tell you your warranty is violated by making mod's, his approach was a bit off. I'm guessing you are either in Philly or Pitt. Both areas seem to have the same attitude, do what I tell you or get out.
If you're near Philly, bring the saw by and I'll show you how to adjust your carb. If not, let me know what area and I'll direct you to a decent service facility.
Either way, find a new dealer.
He told me that it would be a week and a half before he would have enough time to adjust the carb, I told him that I needed the saw for the weekend and you would of thought I had asked him to cut off one of his arms.......
