I don't, but I can imagine it wouldn't be very accurate. Usually our cars have a 20-25% drivetrain loss. I've seen a couple of LQ1's dyno around 160-65whp. Hope that helps.

i had a version of it on my old comp. my brother has a version with desktop dragstrip. theyre fairly accurate if you have enough info. like what the heads flow, exact cam specs, so on and so forth. theyve come to within a tenth of a second in the quarter and the hp ratings should be pretty close. crank rating at least. from there you could factor in drivetrain loss to give you a ball park figure.
