If my car was like crank hp then it would probably be like 365-370hp.
Like my car is fast enough to beat a 335i right now lol

Furthermore, if you were to actually have 310 rated then 305 at the wheels, that would be the perfect transmission as it has a drivetrain loss of roughly 1.5%

. "Usually" you can figure 12-15% loss for a MT and 17-20% loss for an AT.
