I have been confused about how come stock and on the sticker when I bought the car it says 332 HP ... and then convos like these where a Z breaks the 300 mark with aftermarket bolt ons. I don't get it.
332 is at the crank. Dyno numbers are at the wheels. I dunno what the drivetrain loss numbers are on the manual & slushbox, but they're usually 15%-18% on most cars. You can always get crank numbers by pulling the engine and putting it on an engine dyno vs. a chassis dyno.
