Well,we have had great luck with ours.
We have Ryobi model 990r brushcutter which we
modify the engine from 33mm(1.26)bore to 35mm.
Port and polish the intake and outake manifold,plus add a larger jet-system for the carb.

Now that brought our RPM up to about 11000 to 12500 from
the standard of 7500 and wow does it fly (have to wear weights on my legs) to keep from flying await.

Here is what we have add:

Blower/Vacuum-standard

Hedge Trimmer- blew out the ring and pinion gears this last
week end(bummer)

Tree Pruner- cuts great but strip the cable on it,I think
too big of trees and using the extra extention.

Straight Shaft Trimmer-made it from a two hole to a four
hole and took the bottom bottem off for quick-change.
Also making a spool with bicycle chains,should be hot.

Cultivator-now this is hot I can even right and wow does
it dig and dig and dig.

Well,back to the gardens got roses come out all over.
