wow seems pretty high for stock...450 RWHP/560 RWTQ thats puts it at .. ...with 18% DT loss...

Stock Crank for a S600 = 493hp and 590 lbs/ft torque, though its underrated..

I've seen multiple accounts that the twin turbo V12 they put in the S600 is actually around 550 bhp on an engine dyno, not 493. They used 493 because they couldn't let a "regular looking" S class have more power than their top of the line performance model, the S55 (which has exactly the same 493 hp rating).
