Porsche HP numbers are not "at the wheel". However, the Germans tend to be quite "conservative" in their ratings and the listed ratings, more often than not, are closer to a minimum hp than a maximum hp rating.
Most would say to figure 10-15% loss in the driveline.
201 - (10-15%) = 170-180rwhp.
best way to know is to put a car on a dyno

Yep, the 201 is crank. I assume about 15% loss to the wheels. Stock cars should be in the 165-180 range. The Spec Boxsters with A/C removed, under drive pulley, and rebuilt to max spec see 175-195 range. Depends on the dyno as well...
