Divided into sections for easier reading:
According to the Marvel Studios Visual Dictionary, Iron Man Mark 1 can lift 900 lbs (408 kg) with it's arms, so it should be given a LS rating of Peak Human.

According to the Iron Man Manual, between the first two Iron Man movies, the Mark 4 is referenced to have demonstrated Sound Manipulation and Underwater Breathing, while the profile currently lists those abilities as only being present in the Mark 6 onwards. Helping land an airliner might also be a noteworthy supporting LS feat.

According to The Art of Iron Man 3, it's suggested that Iron Man's arc reactors by the time of Iron Man 3 have an energy output 1000 times greater than the triangle reactor of Mk. 6-7:

This would put Mark 8 to 45 armors at 2.8377 Megatons (Low 7-B)

It seems like this should apply to all these post-Avengers armors, considering that a missile that came from the Mark 9 obliterated a weakened Aldrich Killian, Mark 16 broke Killian's arm by punching his punch, Mark 33 cut off Killian's arm, and Mark 40 bullrushed Killian. The tie-in app, JARVIS: A Second Screen Experience has increases in power pointed out as far back as the Mark 8, which is also stated in the Iron Man Manual:

I'm not sure this would scale to Electro's arc reactor, and it shouldn't scale to War Machine Mark 2, which was built pre-Avengers, though War Machine Mark 3 (and Civil War Giant-Man by extension) could probably scale.
According to the Phase Three: Marvel's Captain America: Civil War junior novel, the Iron Man Mark 46 armor's unibeam blast used to vaporize Bucky's bionic arm was stated to be ten times more powerful than a regular repulsor blast, which should upgrade the unibeam to 12.32 tons, 8-B:

Whiplash Mark 2 should have a flight speed of Subsonic specified on his profile, as that is the limit of his flight capabilities established in the Iron Man Manual:

Based on Aldrich Killian being able to do this and Eric Savin being able to do this, it seems like Extremis users on their level should be able to scale to the LS ratings of Iron Man armors by the time of Iron Man 3 instead of having a LS rating of Unknown.
 
It only got a 475% power increase in that specific case. It really depends on the amount of power Iron Man can absorb,
 
t only got a 475% power increase in that specific case
475% is either his maximum or close to maximum. Thor's lightning melted the armor and excess energy was still bleeding away. So whatever Thor hit him with was either his maximum or close to his maximum overcharge limit.
 
I'm fine with the changes

Well, that shows us the following:
  • The armor can handle receiving 475% more power than what it can output
  • Thor when weakened is still at least 5x stronger than a base Iron Man
But that doesn't mean whenever the armor gets amped it a 5x amp.
The Mk6 was at 63% before getting struck with lightning, so it would be a 412% increase. Thor did pull all of the lightning from the sky he could get, for what it matters.
 
I think some wins and losses should be eliminated with this CRT.

Victories to be removed:
-The Mandarin
-Nejire Hado

Losses to be removed:
-Megatron (This should have been removed a long time ago with the Upgrade Tony received to Low 7-C)
-Optimus
-Boba Fett
-Red (Angry Birds)
