I donīt know if an stroker Turbo works well in an high-performence car like the M3/M4.

Neiter me Uli. If the engine is really as Kueks says, I even wonder how can it rev till 7.000 RPM or be reliable if bore was increased, especially with such high boost. The engine of the McLaren MP4-12C revs till 8.500 RPM, but it also has stroke of 69.9 mm.
