Its not an exact science usually, depending on the tranny.
M6 10%-16%
A4 13%-20%
Got these figures from a dyno shop in Worcester MA. The last time I was there.

Since fwhp is simply a show number anyway, I would use the following:
To figure your HP rating:
M6 fwhp = rwhp/.85 for a manual
A4 fwhp = rwhp/.80 for an auto
