RWHP on an automatic?
I'm well aware that an auto trans loses more hp to the wheels than a manual but how much exactly? I have a S5 N/A thats running 100% power. I plan on running it on the dyno after my manual swap but what kind of rwhp am I getting and how much will I gain (est.) by dropping in a TII trans with a light flywheel? Also what kind of power do you get by installing a cone filter and a race pipe?

It becomes a completely different car.
Its literaly like you sell your auto grandma mobile that looks like it wanted to be a sports car, and go out and buy yourself a true sports car.
How much rwhp loss... i dunno... But i'ts the torque that suffers the most in that piecer tranny (I'm judging this on my highspeed on the auto was 143, and my highspeed on the 5spd, was 146... not much different up high).
