typically it's 15-25% loss at the wheels...
the dyno is the best way to find out
not conversion of "hp" to whp. hp has no use, it's the whp that counts

or AWD is like a 20-25%, off course, this is just rule of thumb, but it's not exactly...you know this right?

Are you sure?
I'm on a Skyline forum, and according to them my 191hp car has around 125whp, since they say it has 30% drivetrain loss on a rwd car.

it all really depends on layout, systems (limited slips, traction controls, etc...) but in a Subaru is like 22%......

but i guess we shouldn't take about this since is a honda forum, and we don't wanna **** hybridvteceg off.....
