If you travel on motorways, don't get 3.38, listen to me..
My 3.15 is quite enough to increase your acceleration.
PS:
If you have SMG, with a different ratio you will have trouble in Drive mode, so think about it before getting parts (and maybe PM me)

I don't want to give up the smoothness of the car.

Great, good choise!
With 3.15, the car will be a little more angry but at an acceptable level.
Let us know

Ok so how do I get this diff with a 3.?? final gear ratio in my 6 speed E60?
For all people who want to install a new ratio: not more than -10% ===> from 2.93, not more the 3.23, this is my suggestion (I have 3.15).
If you have an SMG, keep in mind that in Drive mode your car will not upshift/downshift at WOT (you will need to lift up a little the foot at 6000 rpm) ==> if I could have 40 HP, I would come back to old gears, especially considering the difference in noise at > 90 MPH and +10% consumption.
