Stupid question

For the older mini, 02's and such, what is the wheel hp? The crank is 163. When does the crank stop being 163, and start being 168? Stupis q's
Thanks.

I belive the HP change was in 05. The 04's are rated lower than the 05 & 06 models.

As far as Wheel HP - I know alot of people have dyno'ed thier cars and have real #'s but as a general rule you lose about 10-15% of your crank HP in your transmission and related accesories - so crank HP - 10-15% will get you close to wheel HP.

But there are people on this forum who have actual #'s that are much more accurate that me

So hopefully they will chime in soon
