Dyno graphs are for GO, seriously? Are you joshing?

I thought the track was your performance measuring tool of choice?

The track is the proving ground, but dyno graphs much are easier to market with.

marketing or abuse!

Understand, but what impresses me more, especially with the tune, is what people say about the qualitative difference in the character of the power delivery. And that doesn't show up on a dyno graph.

sure it does, as long as people post the graph. most only post peak numbers which could be identical though power below the curve has increased quite a bit

Install time for RMW street header

What's the average install time for the RMW header in a reputable shop?

from my own experience in the garage, 2-3 hours is a fair time if on a lift. if the shop has done it before, it will take less.

I forgot ask in my other thread, but how would this header affect the sound of my stock Cooper S JCW? Significantly or nothing at all? I hope there isn't anything resembling droning.
