For just tuned, I got about 503-ish coming down the flywheel when you take into account about 19-20% power loss through the old style (2010) gearbox. No PP. When talked about on the PL most people seemed to agree with that number. Not sure how others are calculating.

I don't know if you blokes have Dyno Dynamics dynos over in the USA but they had a feature/calculation that derived flywheel torque and therefore power.
I'm hearing around 550hp with a full exhaust?

PL is the AMG Private Lounge. It's hosted by Mercedes and open only to AMG owners.

My car was dynoed on DynoDynamics. If you look through my post history you'll see my graphs. When I did it we didn't use that feature/I didn't know about it. I could see 550 w/ headers/exhaust/tune/intake. That's what most people say is what you can reach before you need to start putting serious money like SC and forged parts.
