83% makes it to the wheels. Or 17% is lost.


So lets say you modded it to output 500 WHP, working backwards is 602 BHP. Which is a hell of a lot of power for a production engine.

For perspective, some other production cars '09 and prior with around that power:
2005 Pagani Zonda F — 594 hp
2009 Bentley Continental Flying Spur Speed — 600 hp
2009 Bentley Continental GT Speed — 600
2008 Dodge Viper SRT-10 — 600 hp
1993 Bugatti EB110 Supersport — 603 hp
2006 Maybach 57S and 62S — 604
2005 Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG — 604 hp
2006 Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG — 604 hp
2005 Mercedes-Benz CL65 AMG — 604 hp
2004 Porsche Carrera GT — 605 hp
2007 Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano — 611 hp
