I've got a clean CS3400 Echo that has maybe ten tanks through it. After running other upper-30cc class saws a bit lately, I'm really not so impressed with the power. I knew that it was gutless when I bought it, but now it's annoying me. So...do we get it ported, or swap it for a clean used 200t? I figure I could probably get $150 for it on CL or eBay and put that coin towards the 200t, but then I'd have an "incompatible" saw - others I work with run 30cc and 34cc Echos, so interchangeable parts has always been a point in the Echo's favor.

Thoughts?
 
A good clean 200t is gonna run you close to the price of a new 201t, with a few mods its stronger than a 200t. Just my 2 pennies.
