You can't compare the Maha transmission loss figure with other dynos it has its own unique calculation. From my experience 89PS is about right (my 997GT2 in standard trim measured a 99PS loss on a Maha)

I am a bit confused with the correction factor as that top "Korrigeret ydelse" should be a corrected power figure however looking at the temp and pressure the CF would be very low and your peak power figure would not change much.

Your gearing might make a difference although I wouldn't have thought so on a Maha....

It looks like you have a tuned motor, maybe give it another run on a different dyno ?

I asked regarding the gearing, and that should not affect the results on Maha.

Good idea with another dyno. Don't know when I'll have the possibility at a reputable shop though. Will check the local race shops @ Nürburgring next time I'm there.

Interesting with your 99 hp transmission loss.
I have always heard that 15%-ish is what a manual transmission should have, and @ my max expected 450hp (stock GT3+center bypass) that should be under 70hp. Big different up to the 90'ies..

The Maha measured transmission/tyres/LSD etc loss cannot be compared to other dynos, not even other (different model) Mahas. My 99hp loss was meausred on the Manthey Maha LPS3000 at 542.6PS EWG 80/1269 and a few days later the engine was measured on a Porsche turbo specific engine dyno at 544PS DIN so I am confident that at least the Manthey Maha was accurate in the way it extrapolated FWHP.

Cool. I'll pop by them @ next ring visit. We're there a few weeks ago looking at Endelss brakes. Nice people

I have been told by several folks that the center bypass actually hurts the performance a bit on the 997.2. Not a ton, but a little bit. Certainly does not help the output, just sounds great. I had spoken with Jamie a bit at Dundon and I think he was hunting for a number up around 475, but that would have been with a full long tube header, custom tune, and new intake plenum etc... I suppose that all depends on the assumed driveline loss.
