I dug up the post I was talking about below from the supposed powertrain engineer.

Watch the red dot here. That's the contact point where the gears are sliding along each other...

Read this post further down the thread. It's much better. ;-)

Yes, very good post, and I remember reading it, that's why I said to allroadCole in my post to him
WHP is all that really matters. Am I guessing right that you wrote it? I thought from reading through posts on Audiworld that you were somekind of automotive engineer, that's why I ask if you were 1, it wasn't because I was trying to be a d!ck. : )

yeah but, CHP > WHP, and thus better for impressing girls, so how do we calculate it again? :P
totally kidding....
but it would be nice if there were some agreed upon way to roughly gestimate the CHP of a modded engine... Cuz you know people will try and use the percentage method or the fixed loss method; and I think we can all agree now that neither of those are very good... oh well...

I know this was the most entertaining post on the allroad board for me in a long time.
And the S4 guys should come hide over hear since I don't think BBB reads the allroad board.
