Yup. Lid, QTPs, Magnaflow cats', modified QTP Y-pipe, QTEC, Borla CB, SS3800, dyno' tune, and that's about it, power-wise. It wasn't a fluke; two runs back to back were within a couple horsepower of each other.

The car dyno'd 355 WHP with standard QTPs and their unmodified Y-pipe. Everything else was the same except a little tune clean-up since the later dyno' tune was with the HVMCs.
