You *DO* realize that all car manufacturers report the measured HP from the SHAFT? And that there is ALWAYS some loss between the shaft and the wheels, so you will ALWAYS have less RWHP than shaft HP?

Now I'm depressed. You did burst my bubble. Guess it's time for mods to put the wheels at 300

RE: 2006 GT 260 HP

guys, cmon, seriously. i thought it was common knowledge that manufacturers rated HP from the crank, not the rear wheels. i only have about 1700 miles on mine and no mods, but ill be REALLY happy if i have 265rwhp stock when i dyno it.
