I disagree that it should still hit 13's. A It may not be unreasonable that the car is down 40hp (only 13% or so), which would explain a 98mph trap. I wouldn't consider the ET as that has a lot more to due with your launch.
I would go ahead and get the walnut blasting or some sort of intake port cleaning done and get back to us. That seems so glaring given what I've seen with people's ports. I'm only at about 36k and getting ready to do my car already.
And yes, it sucks that it has to be done. Blast the car and BMW all you want, I'll agree, but doesn't change the fact that it has to be done.

Oh I love the car, and from what I have read, the powertrain is about as bullet-proof as they come. But yes, it does such that some of the peripherals were not more though out.
