What did you think we were talking about? Wheel hp?

Yeah I only deal with whp. The variance in drivetrain losses in cars is pretty big (especially awd vs rwd vs fwd) and it doesn't matter how much you have at the crank, it matters how much hits the road. Plus manufacturers numbers can be wack. For example, my car is rated at 205 at the crank. Most dyno it at 200-215 at the WHEELS. Same deal with SRT-4's. Some cars, like Rx-8's, dyno WAY below their manufactures numbers at the wheels.
