[QUOTE="svtfocus2cobra, post: 16076913, member: 21786"] No one is confusing it because we have been rating the horsepower the same way for decades now. The understanding is that crank horsepower is the standard by which manufacturers rate and we as consumers can compare vehicles against each other based on that standardized rating. The only time whp matters more in a stock production car is when the car is making more whp than expected after parasitic loss or less whp indicating the car is overrated at the flywheel or is losing more horsepower than usual somewhere in the drivetrain. Once the cars are in consumer's hands the power ratings from that point on are rated at the wheels majority of the time. I dont know anyone here that doesn't look at it that way. If the car makes under 700whp no one will care unless it indicates larger parasitic losses than normal. If the car is rated by Ford at 750hp then it is all but guaranteed that it will only make 6xx horsepower at the wheels, everyone knows that. [/QUOTE]
