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

I personally have seen 1st gens dynoing much closer to 155-160ish than 170-175. Regardless! The car is faster than a S2K and that makes me happier than any dyno ever could lol.
