It's hard to say, but I have a lot of stuff that minimizes my drivetrain losses.

RWD
Manual transmission
330mm rear brakes vs the 345 MSport/MPerformance brakes
Forged 18" wheels (19lbs each)
Only 10k miles on the engine

At the end of the day, there are also a lot of factors that can play into dyno readings. Temperature, DA, Humidity, fuel quality, etc. can cause your hp readings to vary from day to day. I'd expect a big difference because I'm in Ohio and he's down in Florida. Even just on my dyno runs, I measured 385, 396, then 398. That's a 14hp spread across (3) runs within 15 minutes of each other. So you can't really compare two different dyno readings. That's why I did stock, and then tuned to compare the gains. That's more important than the actual numbers.
