Unh, sorry Ingo, not "25% more power" at the wheels,....
Hap's obviously right about my math.  It's more like 100%
more power (i.e.

-  25% DLL or as Dynapack prefers "Transmission Correction"
of 227 hp = 56.75 flywheel hp sucked by car A's driveline vs.

-  25% x Mance's Texas (or Hawaiian in deference to his Hapersized power
level)
398.4 x 25%  = 99.625 lost ponies;

-  (99.625 - 56.75)/56.75 = 42.875/56.75 = @79.7%

or in Hapersize mathspeak, even if you use a 16.7% figure to go the other
way, you are still looking at @ an 80% +/- power loss/gain difference
between the two.
