Are you going for HP #s or speed/feel.

Get a set of 3.73s or 4.10s..Either one will feel like almost 50hp...

Just my 2 cents

Good point to consider - but the downside is the MPG hit.

I had a set of ECS 4.10s and the MPG loss was not that much..as long as you can keep your foot out of it.

Its the biggest bang for the buck..

And you will feel the car really quick. Since your car is an M6 you can run in 6th like your normal 5th.

A stroker motor is an engine that utilizes a different crank to achieve more displacement with the same engine block. An engine fitted with an altered crankshaft that has a larger stroke increases the engine's size without increasing the size of the block.
