I realize all dyno's are different and different conditions effect the rwhp numbers, but for them to be running 91 octane on a 100 degree day, and the car still made 470 at the wheels, shows this car is way underrated at 505 at the crank. Figure running 93 octane on a 70 degree day, the car could pick up another 15 to 20 horsepower. I have to wonder what they did to the engine for the Z/28 since I've never heard of a C6 Z06 making more than 450 rwhp and most are in the 440 range. Could the drivetrain be that more efficient in the Z/28?
Same goes for the Shelby. If these power numbers are accurate, they make more than 526 at the crank.
