Default DYNO results good bad ugly or average

I just got my car dynoed @ R&D on a dynojet 248 C its stock 99 a4 with blackwing, it was hot and humid day, my print out shows 92.7deg air temp
I think my car is running lean because I noticed most cars blew black smoke
out the exhaust while the were on the dyno some also belched blue smoke
mine was no smoke at all what do you guys think.

I think I am smitten with the upgrade bug i would like 350 rwhp but
I do not want to ruin dependability or drivability what products do you recomend
thanks robert

Go with a mild cam... TR220 or so.

I had 350 rwhp before I switched to the ST-3500 and the 3.73 gears. See the sig mods!

A mild cam and my Stage I heads will put you well over that with a ton of torque and stock driveability. I made 375 with a stock idling cam and 402 with a cam with a little lump using these heads.
