Gross - rate of loss = net
Net + rate of loss does NOT EQUEL gross
that is:
I earned $100 (gross) and had to pay the IRS 15% (rate) or $15 = $85 (net ) or a $15 loss
$85 net + IRS 15% loss (12.75) = $97.75
I did not earn $97.75 did I?
Not a $12.75 tax, but a $15 tax . . . right?
Thus
475 gross - 33% (rate) = about 320 net

Where am I clearly off?
If I am "clearly off with your math" show me.
Not being a jerk, I am being sincere.

Ok No hard feelings.
You cant start with 475 and then take a percentage off of that number. Where do you get 475 from? You must start with a real number that is provided by the dyno. So for example:
If you dyno a car and it says that it has 200 wheel hp and you figure a 30% drivetrain loss, you must multiply 200 x 1.3 (or 130%) If you do so you will get 260 hp at the crank.
Also, just think about it. If this 475 number is true (which would be awesome) RIPP's supercharger would be giving the 3.6 JK a 180 hp boost. I just cant imagine their supercharger would add much more than 100-120 crank hp at the most.

I have no direct knowledge or experience with Ripp, but, I get 475 from (x-33%)=320, thats all. Where am I wrong?
"I just cant imagine their supercharger would add much more than 100-120 crank hp at the most."
Based upon what actual experience in supercharging 3.6 engines?

Edit: this may be a little fantasy as it is a 56% increase in hp. While possible, not sure the engine is up to it - rods, bearings, pistons etc

so which jeep made 320/305? The modded one or the stock setup? In the video it looks like the stock jeep made 180 rwhp (stick or auto?). I would think the modded jeep with 37" and gears would put down a bit less to the rear wheels.
