I knew I wanted my 271 to have more power so I began searching a lot and was unable to find a video of a 271 that had a muffler mod and was ported.

I ended up talking to chainsaw Jim and decided to send my saw his way. Well he has finished it up and here is a comparison video of a 261 vs my 271. My saw looks to be almost twice as fast. 15-18 second cut vs a near 30 second cut. He has done a great job!

Anyway, here is the video.

 
It would have been a whole lot faster and 100X cheaper to just have slapped a MAGNUM sticker on it. :yes:

now lets see with the same bar and chain and same log
That is actually one loop of chain shared by both bars of equal length. Are stihl brand bars faster than sugihara? That would be interesting if so.
The log is the same. I did run a comparison with both running the sugi, and closer together on the log, but I backed the timing off too far on the 271 and slowed it down some... though it was still ahead of the 261.

Not ahead of this ripper ! That’s a 261c done by a specialist........

That's quick but hard to compare the two. Of course I would expect a ported 261 to be a little quicker than the ported 271.

It would be nice to have both saws running on the same piece of wood instead of one on a 14in piece and another on a 18+

That is literally the same piece of wood with the 271 cutting directly after the 261. The last cut starts to get larger as it's nearing the fatter end of the butt. The comment about it being a disadvantage was only meant as humor.

I was talking about the ported 261 shown in a separate video.

Rizzo had to stomp on your thread with his useless drivel. You probably have him blocked so you didn’t see the video
 
I smell a crappy fabz video, whats goin on in here? All his threads turn to **** so he has to come in here and bomb CJ’s thread? Typical...

I’m new around here and have a question.

How come when you go to add someone to your ignore list it’s prepopulated with Frank Rizzo?
