I agree with Flash re trying to calculate power figures. Too many variables. I've heard a range of 10%-32% for transmission losses. Our local Porsche club uses the 32% and while I think this is too high, they may have got this from the factory so, who knows. I saw charts of my motor that were done on the same night with massive variations just based on the ramp rates used on this particular dyno. Just know that your car is fast!

Does seem like antiquated electronics and I would agree with the p.o. in that you need to find someone that knows how to fly them. I can't tell how you can affect the tune apart from selecting different pre determined maps that they've made, &/or the FQS switch. Modern ECU's will be a lot more flexible but so long as you can sort out the cold start and ensure you're not running too lean anywhere, you should be good to go for now.

Actually, come to think of it, I'm sure I saw Chris Cervelli post on Rennlist not very long ago. Might be worth trying to find him?
