What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I love my XP 346, and did a mild exhaust port while retaining the approved spark arrestor. It was a little involved using a dremel and the final adjustment was rolling back the high RPM to reduce the possibility of over reving, opening it up increased throttle response time for limbing, but also a very noticeable mid range and top end punch on deep long cuts with full chisel chains in hardwood. The adaptive tuning didn’t curtail the top end rpm, so there was a high side adjustment that was required on the carb screw. No sluggishness, quick start and warm up, and an instant on off the bottom, the adaptive tuning meshed well with this mod. The sound is a bit louder over the stock saw.
I found the XP exhaust mod on arboristsite.com forums.. and there are other threads and YouTube vids for it..

 

you’re very welcome. It’ll be fine based on what you’ve mentioned.. give it some time and the road noise will quiet down some, it’s most noticeable at first..

 

Good stuff. It’s a must that you tune the H after porting. The rpm’s will rise and you need sufficient fuel to feed it. Don’t worry about the 346 over revving. They can take that and then some.

AS were the days! But I’m not a member anymore. But that’s where I got started too.

 

How was the install? Next on my list!

 

Serious piece of gear there, have gas saws as well they are definitely not being replaced by the battery type.

 

Luna got her first spa day!

Dawn wash (yes, just this time, to get rid of all the greasey stuff that has accumulated in 2+ weeks)
Blow dry. Didn't work all that well since her skin was pretty dry, not the slippery I prefer
Zaino Z2 by hand
303 on tires
RainX all the windows/mirrors
Wipe off Z2
roll forward, hit the tires again with 303
Wipe RainX
Thank the wife again for getting me such a cool vehicle

 

For me, it depends on the trail. If it’s going to be brush(desert like conditions), then a battery powered saw is sufficient. But if the trial is anywhere near a forest, Im taking gas.

 

3120 Piped saws I use for competitions in Northern Cal. 136cc GAS and 119cc 10%-20% nitro.

And then the 3120 work saw, that I converted to a two piece head.

 

Lasfit LED Light Bar with CaliRaised Light Bar Brackets

 

Very easy. It could be done in an hour or less.

 

yes

 

Once I get my roof rack I plan on getting the chase bar and mount it on the backside.

Not to be a killjoy, but did you check your state's vehicle code? I think you've got to be careful if you mount lamps that are intended to be used in other than an off-road environment.

https://www.easylawlookup.com/Calif...xact=ON&pgno=489&par=10558&dlevel=2#par_10558

24402. (a) Any motor vehicle may be equipped with not to exceed two auxiliary driving lamps mounted on the front at a height of not less than 16 inches nor more than 42 inches. Driving lamps are lamps designed for supplementing the upper beam from headlamps and may not be lighted with the lower beam. (10566)

Guess if you were pulled over, you could argue they are not driving lamps, but accent lamps... which becomes a slippery slope.

 

Came for the chainsaws

 

How does the Led Bar effect getting the spare tire down, is it in the way entirely blocking the hole?

 

Have not gone thru all 12764 pages so far. This *might* not be an original idea.
While I was wiping the rear mud flaps, I thought it would be cool if the driver side had "TA" and the passenger side had "CO" somehow added to them

 

none!
It has a 3m backing. So far it hasn’t budged. I run it through high pressure (touchless) car washes weekly.

 

Cool, Thanks for the up close picture, how do you plug it in, in the front of the bumper for from behind?

 

Added bed lights! Quick and easy install.

 

I prefer fat chick silhouettes on my mudflaps.
