i have good answers since i recorded a lot of my dyno runs.
i made a 1017 rwhp with a manual trans. i then put in an automatic and made 900 rwhp.
i found the loss on my car with a/c and other street amenities to be about
15% with a stick and shockenly 25% with the automatic.
there are a lot of varibles from car to car so it may be different on your car.
my car was a 2010 camaro with a 9 inch. the 12 bolt has a better hypoid offset and will get about 2 hp higher on a mild street engine.
