Most say 13 - 15 percent. That's what I used to

11.2% @ Max Torque in 3rd gear, for a less simple answer do a search, or if you want to save time, it's a more or less theoretical number and bears no resemblence to reality.

This subject raises its ugly head about every 3 months. Start your search here and don't get Gregg (Factory_Tech) started:
