What sort of loss do u get through your tansmission manual or auto I imagine it would be different between the two, some people say upto 40% some people say as little as 10% this cant be right. Any Ideas?

autos loose more power than manuals, i'm not sure exactly what losses for VL's. I use a general rule of 15% for manual and 25% for auto's
