Other than doing a dyno run and working out your drivetrain losses to get a figure for flywheel bhp; a few 0-100 runs and 400m times, and the weight of your car will give you an idea. As a rough rule of thumb a car that does: 0-100kph 400m Power to Weight 4seconds 12secs 5.0 kg/Kw 5 13 6.0 kg/Kw 6 14 7.0 kg/Kw 7 15 8.0 kg/Kw 8 16 9.0 kg/Kw There are a million variables in all of this, like gearing, power delivery, 4 wheel drive etc, but it gives you a rough guide.
