Adding mods can make the motor more powerful, but it does not in anyway affect how much horespower is lost through the drive train.
THINGS YOU CAN DO. like lighter flywheels, better trans components, transmission cooler, lighter balanced drive shaft and fresh rear end WILL affect the power transition through the drive train. and increase the efficiency of the components.
