Anyhow I'm over it......Back on topic 1 thing I forgot about your Ml's as well as G55's & SRT's if when dynoing and using 4 wheel drive to capture these numbers, Your tranny losses will be far greater than 18-22%....

If I remember correctly Ted Baldwin, w/highly modded G55 was estimating around 26-28% loss or more, for an all wheel drive Dyno loss precentage...

So your vehicles though heavy do perform very well in the car world, and are probably packin' much more crank HP than factory claims...

Maybe do a search on Ted's G55 to find his results as I said earlier my memory on this isn't 100%

...........My G55 makes 491 AWHP and 527 ALL WHEEL TORQUE. Here is the link to the dyno.

...........I don't know what the correct drive train loss figure is. I used 25% because that is what the Subaru STI guys use. However, this means that my G55 makes an astonishing 654 crank HP and 702LBFT of torque at the crank. So as much as like my G55, I'm not so sure of the 25% figure for drive train loss.
