Stihl Super question

[Wild Knight]

What does the 'Super' designated mean in Stihl saws (any model)? What modification to the design of the saw was made to call it a 'Super'.

This same Q came up a while back and the response was that it means there are a few more cc's engine size.

From what I have seen it was a larger cc saw at the end of the model run.

It means that it is better than the same saw without the Super on it. seems the super was dropped in the 80's with the 038 super, and it was usually just a bigger piston and cylinder not enough to get labeled a Magnum just enough to get labeled a Super. Hope this makes sense.
