Drive train loss is only 13% at the REAR wheels (straight from Porsche). They do around 370 at the rear wheels... Not sure about an AWD dyno...

Cabs do about 150 RWHP once you put on a turbo nose...

370 would be a loss of 10.8%. 13%=361hp

In the real world, as measured by a good dyno, the 2WD 6 speed Porsches lose about 15% from crank to the wheels. This would give you about 350 RWHP. But frankly, who gives a crap? I can get a dyno of my car that shows 700 RWHP or one that shows 150 RWHP. Tha fact is that the only power that matters is what the car does while driving against whatever you are measuring against. Track, another car on the street, etc. I consistantly beat cars that claim (and some have shown me dyno charts) of more than 700 RWHP.. The numbers can include some serious bull****.
