Steve has already said via podcasts and etc that no software will be made available for any N20 engine. This include the huge number of sales of X1s and F3x chassis 328s.

His reason: There is no point on upgrading the N20 to the power levels of the N54/55 when that engine is already available in those cars. There's too few people who want to upgrade power on the N20, mostly because they've bought that engine for it's fuel economy and not big power numbers.

Not his exact words, but that sums up what he said pretty accurately. And in ways I agree. The amount of money it would cost him to R&D tunes for N20 engines would be greater than the money incoming from sales of the product. It may seem like there is a lot of interest for a Dinan tune for N20 engines, but in the grand scheme of things, we the people on these forums makes up for a very tiny percentage of N20 ownership.
