Default Saito 30 engine
Is the 40 Saito muffler the same as the 30 Saito muffler. The reason I post this here is that I am unable to open club Saito

Thanks Bob

They are pretty much the same, just different lengths.

If that's a photo of the two then they are very different. The expansion chamber on one is nearly twice as large as the other. The expansion chamber greatly affects power and top RPM.

I can run the .30 with the .40 muffler and see if there is any difference, I doubt it though. Here is the FA .40a and the .30 side by side.
