455HP.

That's definitely the highest numbers we have seen for an auto so far.

Also for all the noobies joining, please take some time to understand SAE ratings, compare them to other engines with SAE ratings and their dyno outputs. Then understand, this is not the 90s anymore. 10-12% driveline loss is now the norm, even for autos. There is no underrating unless the manufacture chooses not to SAE rate their engines (like BMW frequently does).
