My EA6100P manual merely states electronic ignition and max engine speed with bar and chain = 13,800. Idunno if limited or not; sounded limited in the cut. Claims best torque/power made at 7K/10K. Thanks for the step at a time vids.
Bouncing of the rev limiter has me wondering about something that I was considering just recently. What is the limiting factor in running at higher revs. In simplistic terms the power is relatively linear so the power at 10k rpm will be double that at 5k. That Makita was rev limited to 13.5k and had x hp. If it was capable of spinning to 20k then it should produce 1.5x hp. Whatever the limiting factor/s are then it would be nice to have the extra rpm available as a cheap means to get the extra hp. There's motorbikes that spun out to 15-18k rpm and the little 2 stroke nitro rc motors have some that go out to 30k rpm.
Sometimes trying to quantify changes is a pain in the ass. Often i cant determine if it is my inconsistency as an operator or an actual change in the machine.
Definitely opened up on the high end of the rpms. 👍🏻 Sounds great and progress is comi.g along nicely.

Probably g forces holding them back, maybe they could do it; but would probably eat bearings at an alarming rate

👍🏻Doc!

These 6100 are limited at 13,800.
Sounds like after doing the intake, you could have given it tad more on the high jet🤔
👍👍👍
Sure seems like another step in the right direction👍🏻 but those naughty knots😡😅
The old white ones r unlimited
