Eddie, what is the usual loss of hp from crank to the wheels? Wonder what the loss is with PDK and if its different than a manual?

really hard to tell ... it's something that I never found a right number. every car is different, yu have to take tires, wheels, bearings, transmission etc in consideration.
General numbers are about 10-12% for a front engine front wheel drive
15% front engine rear wheel
20% awd
Dyno is a great tool to measure delta, absolute numbers are really hard to obtain accurately.
A good thing about the dynojet is that there is no fabrication of numbers like Mustang and other dynos.
You have the correction factors that are constant, and that's it.

I drove both:
4.0 side muffler delete and M&M.
3.8 oem side mufflers with Sharky unplugged.
The 3.8 barks quit a bit louder then the M&M. You clearly hear it at startup and stays louder all the way up.
Just about as loud at highways speeds with windows closed little throttle.

FWIW I'm at 3,046. Empty tank, champion RS20's, R6's, side muffler delete, Li-Ion battery, OEM Clubsport extinguisher (that thing weighs some 15 pounds...)

That looks about right for a car on iron brakes. US spec doesn't get the polycarbonate rear window and has extra junk in the rear bumpers adding up to at least 20 pounds.
