Drivetrain loss has nothing to do with it cuz they have the WHP already. The Evo making 380WHP makes it for a lil bit and falls off (Stock Turbo) the 50 Trim makes 380 all the way till shifting, so acceleration will not fall off.

Depends, same dyno used for both cars? I think it may be pretty close, but never know till you race. I mean dyno numbers are a good measuring stick, but sometimes can be misleading especially when talking about power under the curve. I remember a story about a similiar powered (380WHP) EVO racing a 410WHP+ TT G35 Coupe. The G35 Coupe had the more power, but it also was heavier, so in my opinion I wouldn't had been surprised if it was close. What did surprise me, was on how easily the EVO pulled 3 to 4 cars on the TT G35, that was unexpected. So you never know, when you just go off of peak HP numbers.
