It really doesn't have that much drivetrain loss, and it is underated from the factory, so its gotta be at least 430 to the wheels. 380 is lowballing it.

16 - 17% drivetrain loss sounds about right to me.

Maybe in a car that weighed 3000 pounds you could hit elevens, but the Audi weighs over 2 tons, and still can hit mid twelves, so ha.
