Default Rear Wheel Hp Vs Flywheel Hp

What is the added percentage needed to convert rear wheel HP to flywheel (crank) HP? I think it is between 15% and 18%.

rule of thumb is 15% and we have seen C6s avering about 340 on the dyno which is exactly 15% (assuming there is 400HP at flywheel) we know that many C5 Z06s made more than their advertised 405HP (shhhh)

Supposedly you will gain 1 or 2% of the efficiency after the car is fully broken in.
