Ken Macfarlane said: (quoted from post at 07:29:21 12/01/09) The "turbo" on the Jonsered is just a swirl thing to keep wood chips from clogging up the air filter.
Actually, the Jonsered "Turbo" saws have a different flywheel that has oversized blades which increase cooling airflow and help keep sawdust out of the airfilter by centrifugal force. Normal saws like the older Jonsereds and Stihls I have owned typically get air from the back side of the saw and therfore tend to need more filter maintenance in heavy cutting. It really does work to keep the airfilter clean and you can feel it moves a lot of air as it will pull on your shirt if you rev it with the intake side near you.
With all of that being said, I did not mean to imply the saw is powerful because it has a "turbo" sticker on it. It is powerful because it has huge displacement and has been an excellent saw for years. If you put a dirtbike engine in a chainsaw, it should cut really well.
