Dyno 2020 X5 M50i

After a second glance, yes but it appeared to just be a title.

I am no expert and simply trying to gain more knowledge, so I apologize in advance for seeming newby'ish.

Obviously the dyno was on rollers, so they have to account for drivetrain loss. Do you know what percentage they used to account for the loss?

For example, if the dyno is assuming a 15% drivetrain loss, you would need to multiply 1.1765 by 445 crank hp to get 523 hp.

But again, I am just starting to learn the science of this. There are 100' of smart members here to help out.

Love that it looked like an all out party at the dyno place!! Cheers
