Default First Dyno Numbers

Well got my first dyno numbers:
278.7 MAX POWER/294.1 MAX TORQUE.
Are these good numbers? The car was running a little rich plus the car has 18'' wheels that don't look that lite to begin with. I expected a little more. I guess it coild be worse.

Default 18 %

you are supposed to add 18% on an auto, take the hp and multiply it by .82
