I thought crank HP was measured with no exhuast after the exhaust manifold and no pipes/filter in front of the intake manifold? If this is the case, the "% tranny loss" really is % tranny loss + cat + muffler + extra piping + tire friction losses. So, all this talk about so and so's IS-F having more than 416 HP is all bogus except the guys that are FI and nitrous.

HoustonT's Modded IS-F Wheel 383HP
HoustonT's Modded IS-F Crank (383x1.165) = 446HP

There you go, he got 446HP at the crank

Keep in mind that math is stupid, as you can't really compare the manufacturer crank HP # to a real word dyno #, then you got dyno differences, then car differences...

But hey it is a number but that will answer your question!
Who would have thought a couple of years ago Lexus would be able to put out a 440+hp sedan with bolt on's and non FI....
