If you have the rear mufflers, and filter, + upgraded xpipe (+10 claim) and a Powerchip tune (+10-20hp), I would think you would be in the 360's on the same dyno....hmmmm
I just have the upgraded x-pipe and filter. Rear muffler is stock. Powerchip tune is Stage2 but Stage2 is for if you have upgraded entire mid-pipe section, which mine is not. That was one of my concerns of going with stage2 before i actually got my AKRA full exhaust(getting exhaust in next couple weeks). I was concerned that I would lose power since the tune is specifically tuned for AKRA full exhaust and I only have x-pipe and stock everything else. Mike said losses would be minimal and it just made more sense to me to go with stage2 despite incurring some minor losses. That way I wouldn't need to reflash twice...

Besides that I believe everyone's car is a little different from one another. All depends on who built the motor, how you break in the car, and how you drive the car on a regular basis. Another member dyno'd his car same day as I did mine and he only came in at the low 300's i.e. 305-307(if my memory serves me correctly). But, I agree w/you 349 is not that spectacular. I'll be posting my dyno sheets very soon. If I remember correctly, my baseline dyno came in at 339. That was Pre-Tune. Post-tune was 349.
