I've searched about N20 globally because this one from 228i has probably exactly the same internals as one in first F30 series.
My comments were in response to your comment which implied that the N20 engine could blow "even in stock form". I have found nothing anywhere that would validate that claim. The N20 seems rock solid in stock form.
If you're saying that tuning the N20 well past it's engineering and design parameters, say, over 330 ft/torque - well, that would be a different kettle of fish.
