Rear Wheel Horsepower to Flywheel Horsepower Conversion
Convert rear wheel figures to estimate flywheel figures.

Flywheel Horsepower = FHP; Rear wheel Horsepower = RHP

FHP = RHP + 17% (auto trans)

FHP = RHP + 25% (man trans)

RHP = FHP - 15% (auto trans)

RHP = FHP - 20% (man trans)

Example: 312.25 FHP = 249.8 RHP + 62.45 HP*

* Manual trans: +25%
