your right,

i just based the formula off stock Z's 332 bhp vs 275 whp, which is a 17% decrease.

The formula would have to be weighted, so if you were doing individual mods you would have to increase the .17 (17%) to maybe .25 or .3


300whp would be around 351bhp using the 17% formula which sounds about right
