Default This sound right?

So I don't know if I ever posted my dyno numbers after being tuned or not, but I made 254/292 to the wheels. Does that seem low to anyone? Here's a breakdown of mods...

2002 Mustang GT
Auto trans (I know this is a big killer)
JLT RAI
BBK 75mm tb/plenum
SLP longtubes
SLP o/r X
Borla Stingers
and of course the tune using SCT xCal II tuner on the dyno.

So...does this seem normal to everyone? Maybe it's just me, but I think it might be a little low. I keep reading people making more power with less mods, but then again they're 5spds not autos. I'm so confused lol. I plan on doing Steeda pullies sometime soon along with some Stage 1 n/a cams. Hopefully that brings the numbers up some.

Hmm...Seems about right but I think a really good tuner might be able to get a little more power out of it with a aggressive tune.

For a auto that is real good. Almost seem a little high for the mod you have.
