I send out the system to you, we tune the car.
You send the system back. It's like having me there to tune your car in person

Hell no, if it's a day then I'll never need to pay that much for such a tool. But Jan, when it comes to USA to overseas shipping, I'm the man. You shipping this system to any country might take 10 days (to Saudi in my case), few days for finding a dyno and tuning it, 3 to 5 shipping days from the your customer to you. Roughly, that makes the lease period 2 to 3 weeks . Again, this is from an experience of hundereds of shipments!!!!!!

I have to ship it to South Africa first as he has been waiting for 6 months for his 2 Mini's with the RMW kits on them

We will be taking orders soon for the rest. Marwan, I want to figure out the shift points before sending it to you so we don't have to do this 2x

Shift points? Do you mean the thing that I'm trying to get my friend's help on too? If yes, I might go for your cam for now.
