Another 359 non-cat mod Thread
New thread same question the old thread was getting long winded
I got my non-cat muffler for my 359 today. I did not have to adjust the H screw but I did have to adjust the L screw just a little.
It runs much cooler. The exhaust does not char the wood anymore.
It seems to have more power and cut faster but I am not a seasoned wood cutter so I cannot say for sure.
Because I did not have to adjust the H screw does that mean that there will be no power gain?
I have read in other posts that a 20% gain can be expected by modifying the cat muffler. How much could I gain over the non-cat muffler by modifying the non-cat muffler or for that matter the cat muffler since it will never go back on the saw?
The usual reply seems to be have a woods port done. I am not interested in that at this time.
Thank you so much for your time. This forum probably saved my saw by convincing me to at least buy the non-cat muffler.
