Well, it's a lot of ifs and buts.
You're assuming that Savagegeese's data is perfectly correct (despite being an outlier so far),
and that the engine kept the same hp/liter, which it most likely didn't.

Here's an alternative point of view:
  1. Savagegeese's data is an outlier for whatever reason
  2. the power loses are ~30 hp in both cars.
  3. 1st gen: 200–205 hp at crank - 30 = 170–175 whp.
  4. 2nd gen: 228 hp at crank - 30 = 198 whp, which aligns with "high 190's whp" mentioned previously by Toyota engineers.
