Default how to figure out displacement

for some reason I keep getting umbers that are way to high.
motor has 4 cylinders, 2.4L (2389cc "145cid") and bore it .5 over (oem 89.5mm, now 90mm) with an oem stroke of 96mm. what is the final displacement?

thanks, for the info.
Just so I know for future reference. What's the equation to figure is out.

bore is a diameter, not the area of the circle.

(3.14*(bore/2)^2) * stroke = displacement/cylinder
displacement for whole engine = displacement/cylinder * # of cylinders.

You've increased the displacement somewhere between 0.02-0.03 L considering the volume affected by piston shape since its a higher compression piston.
