how much power loss to drivetrain?
Just wondering how much power you would loose to the wheels through the drivetrain of a 98 mustang gt rated at 215hp? i used a hp calculater that takes your 1/4 time and your trap speed and it tells you how much hp you make to the wheels, it says my car has 210.9 hp

your looking at about 185 rwhp if its stick or about 175 if auto. Yea these GT's dont make a lot of power. Thats why most on here will tell you to do a pi swap in order to get about 40 whp.
