    Will that fit a 460?
    Dumb question. How much louder does it make the saw and how much does it increase the power. As far as i know my 460 is stock.

    I will set this up tomorrow and let you know. Should be louder and run a little faster if I am not mistaken.

    Let us know if it works out to be worth the $149. I've never operated a modded saw, but I'd like too! And as a mod goes that's an acceptable price and a way better job than I could do.

    I looked the company up on the web. They have a full line of modded mufflers for Stihl saws, both current and past models. For models with a carb I'm guessing you would have to do the re-tune while models with M-tronics the saw will reset itself.
