Typical remap is anywhere between 255 and 275 hp at the wheels, dependant upon type of dynomometer used and the method used then this figure can vary, this will also cause the flywheel figure to vary.

Both you and Carlos are about right with losses from the auto box, anywhere between 18-22%.

Best bet if you are thinking of having a remap is to stick to just one RR and do before and after runs without taking the car from the rollers, this should give you an accurate figure of your gains, although it may not give you an accurate power and torque figure.

I have seen graphs for 335d's with over 300 hp at the wheels, it can be done.
