This might yield a closer estimate on the A4. Had the M6 in mind when I wrote what I did above.

I too have heard the 18-20% loss for an auto. So figure somewhere between 280 and 287.

Also keep in mind when you calculate this that the FWHP changed in 01 from 345 to 350.
Mine is an 00 3.15 A4 and after a few mods and a trip to Norris Motorsports I've got 317 RWHP on the dyno or roughly a 40RWHP gain. So it's fairly easy to increase the stock numbers with simple add-ons.
