So at 15% transmission loss, that's around 192hp at the wheel.
Question for Singsider: Was the engine completely broken-in?

If the dyno results can be verified, I believe that the results you got are probably a "worst-case" scenario, since it was performed in Singapore, a location with hot and humid conditions, meaning the air is significantly less dense than low temperature and humidity conditions, where one would expect power and torque figures to be even higher still.
