You can get more power from your 2 stroke engine by rebuilding the top end. I demonstrate this process on Stihl ms660 chainsaw that needs new piston rings. Other brands like Husqvarna, Echo, Homelite and McCulloch all share a similar process and therefore much of the information I share here will apply on those engines too. The knowledge gained can also be transferred to your 4 stroke engines as well!
