The garmin unit had it set to 1 percent resistance.

Anyways at the end of the ramp test it bumped my ftp to 230.
Your first few tests on the trainer are going to provide underestimates because you're not used to the mechanics and sensory feedback. Ride for a few weeks and try again. You may be pleased...or not, because all your workouts will get harder.
