I believe someone ran the numbers and the general consensus is that the A8 is ~17%


edit: You also did your math wrong.... drivetrain takes away power... it does not add it... so it's not:

333.7 rwhp x 1.25 = 417.125 bhp , but it would be 333.7rwhp / .75 = 444.9333 bhp
Read again the OP’s post. He didnt say 25% drive train loss. He said the dyno he was on was about 25% lower than the rest.
