RWHP is very much more important to a car's performance than how much it makes at the flywheel. So if ford cares about the car performing well, they need to care about how much of the engine's power makes it to the wheels.
Rwhp is a lie put out by the pharmaceutical companies. Wake up America!
Why does Ford care about the power "on the rollers?" As long as the car performs well and they can advertise a HP number, I don't think they care too much about the power going to the rear wheels.
They have to bump the power a decent amount just to offset the extra loss of the independent rear end. Otherwise the new car will put less power on the rollers than the current one.

parasitic loss can be "made up" for in gearing and one would never know the difference.RWHP is very much more important to a car's performance than how much it makes at the flywheel.

please explain how IRS loses more power through parasitic loss then a solid axle... I highly doubt it does and and doubt even more so it's enough to notice. Go back to which ever forum you came from.
It's not fantasy that an IRS has more loss than a live axle. Granted it's just a few percent, but a few percent adds up on 400 hp. Just because you don't understand it doesn't make it any less true.
