Default 191bhp?

i got my car dyno'd for the first time and the tester gave me a printout, it was nice to see it pulls 238.7 at the flywheel , but horrible to see that at the wheels was only 191?
i know there is always some loss through the transmission but is there anyway i could regain some of that lost power back???

Don't be discouraged, that's right inline with what stock motors should put down give or take 5hp. I don't know of anything you can do to regain that horse power unless you want to spend a fortune developing a more efficient transmission. You could however spend a few grand on a supercharger and be looking at around 280whp without having to do much else.
