I have a new xp390, (ported by a reputable porter), first cuts put her into some dried 24" magnolia, was disappointing. Feels slightly stronger than my ported 372. I message the man who ported my 372(another reputable porter), claims hes re ported a pile of the other guys saws because their too tame.

I need a saw i can bury a 36 with, diagnals for face cuts when felling or blocking, and doing some rip cuts, and vertical cuts occasionally. My porter says it will handle a 36, tho idk how often he fells and such.

Will this saw run a 36 skip effeciently in these circumstances, with a good port job? Im reluctant to pay to have this thing re ported, if im gonna still hate it, and wish i had a 395.

Thank you for the responses, assuming they come, apologies if i posted this in the wrong spot.
