A user database of modifications and results is an awesome idea! The big question is how to quantify results, I think. First, noise level, how do you measure it and what is the character of the noise (pleasant, irritating, ear-shattering, etc)? Second, dyno numbers are easy enough to come by but where I live cost about $90 for a dyno run, and worse yet, every dyno is different.

Is there some real world performance measure that's tolerably easy to take and reasonably predictable that would be meaningful?

Perhaps 50-90 top gear roll on, before and after? (measured on a private road, naturally...).
