Default should I be happy with these results?

I just got my car finished last night and put it on the dyno this morning.It prevoiously made 510rwhp and 475tq today it made 537rwhp and 489rwhp through a a4 unlocked.. locked it made 554rwhp and 533tq. I went from 1 3/4 dynatech headers and catless mid pipe to 1 7/8 stainless works headers and 3" off road mid pipe I also changed my k&n cai to a halltech killer bee2 cai and gz motorsports vacuum pump( 7"of vacuum) because of the crankcase pressure was building up with the new heads....I know that the halltech cai replaced the 85 mm maf sensor(the new ls7 style) to the 102mm in and outlet tube.Its a 418 ls3 with prc 250cc heads , 11.7 to 1 compression,fast 102 ported by tony mamao ,23x and 24x cam with .624 intake and exhaust... what do you think? my tuner said I should be happy and I guess i am....

I didnt know what to expect....I just read the thread about the c6 that lost horsepower going from 1 3/4 to 17/8 headers.. there is so much info on here your minds start to wonder and was it worth it...And i guess that was the question i needed answering....thanks it a blast to drive but it still has some tunnig issues that needs to be addressed..

That sounds like a lot of power through an a4,
Have fun with that beast and don't doubt your power numbers
