Our cars are not that efficient in the drivetrain at all...

But then again, most people on this thread seem to treat dyno numbers as some sort of phallic symbol.

Without that, your current numbers are meaningless, unless you plan on using your current numbers as your baseline going forward. But there's no reason to get depressed about your numbers versus anyone else, period. Different dynos, different locations, different days, different conditions will guess what, yield DIFFERENT NUMBERS. You *can not* compare your numbers to someone else, unless that person dynod at the same location, same day, under the same conditions. It's pointless.

Richboy - I think you missed Trey's point...
-The individual dyno
-The set up
-The heat/humidity
-The elevation
.. all these things have an effect on your dyno output numbers. You could go back in a week and get slightly different numbers. Moreover, someone who dyno'd at 235 rwhp on a different dyno in a different region might dyno lower/or higher on the dyno you used. IT'S ALL RELATIVE. And I'm not sure I'd get all depressed if they guy who ran the test said that's pretty low w/ a G w/ Mods.. because if he ran a ****ty test- you think he's gonna tell you?? HELL NO. He's gonna say ur G didn't run so well.
Be more scientific (and less emotional) about your approach- would be my advice.

I do agree that the drivetrains in these cars (G/Z) seem to lose more power, esp. in an auto, than other cars I've seen.
On **AVERAGE** (YES, the number will be lower for xxx car and higher for xxx car), you should plan on roughly 20% drivetrain loss for an auto tranny, around 12%ish for a manual.
So, if you have a 300 hp engine on an auto, your looking at loosing about 60 hp on an "average" through the drivetrain. The numbers I've seen here on stock 5ATs seem to be a bit lower than that, as is evidenced in this thread. About 25%-30% drivetrain loss seems to be the going rate on Gs, sometimes more. Given, I have not been around Gs long, so please correct me (with links) if I'm wrong about these figures.
Perhaps it has something to do with the "extra" 5th gear in the autos. Hmmm...
