The crank numbers posted by the dyno are based on a coast down measurement of drive train losses. If you believe this dyno, it shows that the factory hp rating is accurate and the the drive train is VERY inefficient.
For the record, I found an e92 ESS VT-1 on 91 octanne that made 444 whp on the same type of dyno...

How do you figure this is efficient? that is a 20 percent drivetrain loss with a DCT (which has same losses as a manual). A "normal" loss from cars 15-20 years ago was 15 percent for a manual. This is more than it should be IMO. I do not know anything about this dyno but 20 percent drivetrain loss is a ton if that is indeed the numbers accurately.
