Great videos, thanks for sharing. In my experience the 562 filter is too small, especially on a ported one. Very noticeable difference after installing red beard foam filter on my 562, especially later in the day after cutting several hours.

I always run the winter filters on my 550’s and 562, really noticable also they filter just fine.

Goes to show how such a small change can make a difference. 2 smokes are tempermental creatures 👍🏻, thats a damn good running saw buddy.

Pretty big difference! For a race, sure, swap to the winter filter👍🏻 for a work saw or firewood duty saw tho, I'd personally prefer the standard filter😁

Congratulations on your saw build. It's a beauty

My thoughts on the modifications to pistons is hopefully you can use aftermarket pistons that will still be available down the road, but that's not always possible in today's world, so might as well not worry about it. And as long as you have good notes on what you have done to the piston for that saw, then I see no reason to worry because you could probably get the replacement piston modded to match up without too much trouble. The same goes for mods to an OEM piston, just keep good notes and do the same to the replacement. But I also get the reason why leaving pistons alone for some makes sense. That saw is pretty darn awesome, BTW.

👍👍 nice work!

Wouldn’t the winter filter be lower flow? The cold dense air requires bigger jets to avoid leaning out on every two stroke I have tuned. If you aren’t adding more fuel you need less air volume to maintain your a/f ratio.

Would it be worth putting an air horn and uni filter setup?

I can’t stand flock filters.

Winter filter kills saws!
