I'm not sure about the AWD car since there are more variables, like the increased load leading to more boost and torque below 3k. But for my RWD car, I'm estimating the actual power this way:

Uncorrected figures: 243 whp, 273 wtq
Assuming loss due to 5700' altitude is 12.5% (thanks Shiv): 273 whp, 307 wtq
Assuming loss due to 6MT is 12%: 310 bhp, 349 tq

Sound reasonable? Or is 349 lb-ft too far out of the ballpark for a stock car?
