You may have seen this from Dinan's website - it's the only place I know of to get a complete description.

I don't think this is complete, but IIRC they offered:

turbo for the M30 motor (50-state legal)
turbo for the S38 ("off-road" only)
92 mm stroker modification for the S38
cams for both the M30 and the S38
exhaust cam gear
suspension mods--stages I thru IV. This included shocks, springs, elimination of the SLS, adjustable rear trailing arms, upgraded sway bars.
front stress bar
brake modification: Stage I was basically the single-pot fronts from the 850i. Stage II added upgraded rears; I think these were the E34 540i setup.
3-piece forged wheels (these were very nice, BTW)

These bits are in addition to the items still listed on the Dinan website.
