Farmertec is having a good sale right now. They have the 2511 for $50 too. Thinking about picking up the 395.

Edit - apparently the sale items are not the US stock which is a different price...

That 49 price is before China shipping by slow boat that will put it over the 99 saw shipped cost from NJ warehouse. Just so aware of that.

Shows around 3pm this rain might slow up so I can film. 2511 muffler testing.

Putting new loop on oem one first.

Need to flip log around. Noticed to much variations in the end piece for first 3 mufflers if did 3 cuts each. Other end was close for way longer length.

@JeepHead Egan pipe was way ahead of rest. PSS V2 was next and reminded me of the egan in acting and sound etc. WSC was last on the OEM. Only one it would have beat was the stuffed up OEM stock muffler.

So on clone 2511 I only tested the open clone muffler with small pipe and compared to egan pipe to see.

Clone 2511 with egan pipe v/s clone open small pipe. Egan was 2.3 sec faster per cut.

Working on videos.

I may try the pss v2 and wsc on it later but done for now.

OEM and clone ext exits

Great video! Looks like the Egan Pipe is the undisputed champion! Looking forward to the clone test vid. Where can we find your group?

Not on clone. That was OEM.

PSS V2 was best on clone. So other guy is going to try them on ported clone to see.

Could have been luck of test cuts. We trying to figure out.

I would have thought V2 would have been closer to Egan on OEM one too.

Instead of shaving the back mount on cnc mufflers to run on clone 2511. Like Scotty showed.
I decided to run 2 gaskets since no heat shield used on clones to make up that space.
PSS V2 on the Farmertec 2511.
Egan pipe going back on my oem.

Farmertec 2511 clone muffler test. PSS V2 was best.

PSS V2, Egan and the clone open pipe muffler.

I even put screen in on PSS V2 as I was going to leave it on the clone too.

Took out the slowest cuts of each of the clone cuts out and took the fastest cuts timed to compare.

IMHO Egan or a PSS V2 best for OEM or clones.

Stock clone pipe open muffler 13.41
PSS V2 10.70
Egan 11.16

Thanks Kev! I like everything about the Egan pipe, how it runs, how it looks, and how it sounds. No regrets with that pipe whatsoever.

I cant find my times wrote down.

But the Egan pipe on oem was in the high 8's. So almost 2 seconds faster then Farmertec clone 2511 that isnt broken in yet.

OEM 2511 no doubt left there. Egan 1st and PSS V2 2nd.

@JeepHead was trying to wrap my ahead around why on clone PSS V2 was hair faster then Egan pipe. But not so close on OEM saw.

Thinking was closed port v/s open port and small air filter base and air filter v/s oem.

I totally forgot about smaller carb v/s larger oem carb. But Scotty reminded me of that.


So I check last 4 cuts. I found a little bit of the difference just now on last 4 cuts on clone. Egan pipe was 9" down and 8.25" wide at that point. The PSS V2 was 8.5" down and 8.25" on last 2 cuts.

This is why I always checked on cants back in race days. That was my last one used up.

What's the sound different between the Egan and V2 and do you have to modify for the V2? I may pickup a rear handle 2511.

IMHO the V2 deeper sounding. I didnt have to mod anything.

@JeepHead I'll let everyone know in my group and you here. But some day there is going to be a clone of the 346/353. ;)

Not that I care anymore being I love my echo 501's etc. I'm all set now.

But will make it easier for guy to get parts etc.

It was a PITA to find stuff on that project packrat 346 OE. It is running a aftermarket 44.3mm topend on it testing. Only off of oem time wise by about 10%
If I didnt know it anyone would be happy. Another guy ported one and said they port up good too.
