what really is the point of modifying something that already has close to 122 cc and 8.7 hp at least on paper?? if its competition i accept, but else, i think there's no need for that. someone explain to me the point of modifying this beast to perform better than in stock form, i mean i dont see the reason, if somebody do, please explain..
i was a groundsman for a guy who dropped an MS290 10M out of a tree onto concrete while running! the only damage sustaind was a partly broken front hand guard and it was still running! one month since then it still works as well as when it was first run in!!! things like this give stihl its great reputation and why i would never consider another brand!
Yep it still works! The on-off switch broke off and thats all the damage it sustained. But it doesn't start on the first pull like it used to. The 009 was one awesome top handled saw. But I'm very pleased with my MS200T. Have a nice day.
I recently purchased a MS200T chainsaw with a 14 inch bar, its an expensive bugger but boy is it worth it!! I dropped my 1994 Stihl 009 about 40ft landed on concrete it still works but is not dependable. I have a 009, MS200T,029,036,046 magnum,088,an extendible power pruner and a Stihl 40 inch hedge trimmer, so as far as I'm concerned Stihl Rules!!!!!!!!!!!!
personal i think how bigger the chainsaw how better husqvarna gets versus a stihl. about stihl: i have a ms200T tophandle from stihl and there is no better saw than that one too use in a tree. I also have a 357. 372 and 575 husqvarna and have trobbel al all.. perfect chainsaw.
no it aint sped up, the saw is sped up with a speed sprocket, ported polished, jetted prolly a header too. that saw is over 100cc's jackass. watch the stihl timbersports on espn and you'll see saws just like that. dont be an ignorant jerk
yes, you can tell that the video has been sped up. Look when he goes to grab the chainsaw. Also the sound was cut out because it would have given it away even more easily. He believes that his shabby editing can fool everyone.
Obviously edited? Not so obvious to me. What does seem obvious is that you know very little about chainsaws. That is the largest saw that Stihl makes, and this one has been modified for even more power. I wish more people would get over their childhood frustrations and give credit where credit is due.
would it be worth doing this to a ms271?

What was that like 4 seconds? FAST! The 880 seems to have quite a bit more torque and high end than a 440. Both nice saws.

088 will run a lot longer than a 48" bar, ive seen them with 60"+ bars
treeclimberdave 3 years ago
Stihl says that the max is a 59" but u definantly put a 6ft bar on it no problem, u have 8.8hp to work with after all!

are you sure its not "880" because the only saw of stihl that i know of with that big of an engine is the STIHL MS-880 MAGNUM.

088 = old model number. 880 = new model number.

look husky 575...it can't compare with ms441 magnum....stihl: 5.6hp 6.6kg....husky:5.4hp 6.8kg...and compare husky357 with stihl ms361...husky:4.4hp...4.6kg...stihl:4.6hp..4.5kg
if you look 372xp and 440 magnum it's pretty much the same saw.sory for my bad english

yes, you can tell that the video has been sped up. Look when he goes to grab the chainsaw. Also the sound was cut out because it would have given it away even more easily. He believes that his shabby editing can fool everyone.
