Somebody's talking crap here & it ain't the tree!
Hi guys.
This is a question for some of the more technical minded guys here in regard to porting and modifying some of the later computer controlled saws. If it has been covered before on AS then apologies.
Firstly we all know that these saws have certain parameters they need to operate under. If anything goes outside of those parameters I assume that the management system cannot compensate for this so the saw either runs poorly or starts having issues under load etc etc.
What are some of the problems that builders/porters have come up against when modifying these saws based on the management alone?
The main thing that has brought this to my attention is a piped 576 doing the rounds on the Australian race scene built by a guru out of Europe that has all of the Autotune gear removed. Therefore the systems obviously have limitations but I'd like to know what.
Hopefully somebody here can tune me in.
Before anybody winds up this isn't a shot at these systems but I'd just like to know how much is known about the parameters they are designed to operate under. I know there are some pretty awesome saws around with both AT and M-Tronic but they don't strike me as being much more than mild-moderate porting. There has to be a point where these systems can't cope anymore.
I'm sure Stihl and Husky didn't design the system to handle extensive porting and high compression but I could be wrong
Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.
