Welcome. Where are you, in Northern CA. I am in Vacaville, and also new to the forum, and Mini’s. I have a 2015 F55, which I bought a week ago.

searched the 2gen section but didn't find posted values. I want to know what % at say 4k rpm a working HPFP volume control valve reads... The highest mine reads is 43%. was also wanting to get information on the best place to order cam tools...

You are not far from me. I am not a fan of black wheels, in general. The silver look better, IMO. Mine has 17 inch 10 spoke wheels. They look good, and were a $1200.00 option, when the car was new. I like the stripes on your hood. I am considering adding them to mine.

The wheels on it are nice and lite! Better rethink this!
We have a few vendors here, that can help you with cam tools.
