The N55 is now available in EVERY SINGLE MODEL in the bmw lineup. I'm sure the production numbers even just in the last 2 years dwarf the total N54 cars on the road.
BMW isn't stupid... they will make the engine assembly (block/head/intake and exhaust manifolds) fit in the same space because it costs less that way. Airboxes and intercooler pipes will be different, but someone who comes out with a slightly modular turbo kit for the N55 *should* sell way more of them than N54 kits if the tuning side pans out.

Well said!! I've been worried with the F30 3 series variant, the upcoming 2 series, the M135i in Europe, 6 series, etc, I was hoping they shared the same underlying hardware. Only differnce being the DME which can hopefully be reined in with a Flash and JB4. Damn it, why so many variables to make this work out?
