Otherwise you end up with a equation that has a varbialbe for every factor.

but Alberto is right, it's completely impractical...

I have no idea WTF you're talking about, and I'm a friggin PhD student in Chem Eng lol!
Good luck trying to explain everything...
I see a major flaw already: hp gain claims are nowhere near 90% accurate!!

He said " Go with the advertized gains but remember they are the best modded compared to the worst baseline. So assume that they are 70-80% effective."

Not every mod is about getting more and more horsepower. I certainly didn't buy a Popcharger thinking I'd get a claimed "6 rwhp" but rather I bought it for the nice sound and the POSSIBILITY for a little extra oomph, however tiny it may be.
Just my .02 cents

i heard a while back that power loss at altitude is roughly 10hp/1000' in elevation. i do know there is some loss. i've driven from Dallas to Buena Vista, CO at least once a year for the past 15 years in numerous vehicles and you can feel a substantial power loss with the thinner air.
anyone have any "real" knowledge about this?
