The bore was increased to 94.6mm and the stroke lengthened to 90mm.
The displacement raised to 3,795cc making it the largest
six-cylinder production BMW engine of the modern era. Theres no
replacement for displacement but BMW Motorsports division did not
stop there. These changes increased the compression ratio to 10.5:1

The Six-Speed came paired to a taller 3.23:1 limited slip

increase in spring firmness, thicker Antiroll Bars, and adjustable
rear toe-in. Steering system had a change in ratio from 16.2:1 to
15.6:1.Adaptive M Suspension was a standard on all 6 Speed built
M5s when previous only found with the Nurburgring Package. The
M-tuned version of the Electronic Damping Control system features a
control switch on the dashboard that allows Adaptive M Suspension
to be switched to a firmer more aggressive setting. The 'advanced
for its time' electronic system uses sensors to gather lateral G's,
acceleration, braking, steering, and road speed for an optimally
tuned shock rate.Build Sheet Information:VIN BL01938 TOUR Engine
