Incorrect parameters allows the ECU to give to much ignition advance, to little fuel, or incorrectly reads some or all of the sensors which lead to the same situation. This can cause poor flame propagation, incredibly high cylinder pressures, or seriously lean Air Fuel Ration for the pressure in the cylinder and damage the piston crown, cylinder wall, blow a head gasket or damage the head itself as well as damage the valves.

if you have to ask this question, then writing a "college" paper on it may not be a good idea. You should be doing research on this topic, not asking an online forum where you have no clue if the information is factual or not. 95% of the people on car forums don't really know what they are talking about and just regurgitate what they heard someone else say if it be true or not.
Choose a subject that you know, or do some research the old fashion way.

If the tuner adjusted the EWS maps to fluctuate your turbonium fluid at high RPMs, it can cause a DANGER TO MANIFOLD condition which weakens the passenger side floorboard. In extreme cases this can get blown off and separate from the car. The condition is exacerbated by the use of NOS brand nitrous systems (which contain the ONLY brand of flammable nitrous gas). A side effect of this condition is also unfortunately fried piston rings and possibly losing your girlfriend or the title to your car.
Seriously though, there are many many ways that you can blow an engine, apparently none of which are familiar to you. If people are already hitting you with questions to test your knowdge of tuning, chances are they're just having fun at your expense. Do some of your own research before you try and paint yourself as a knowitall of tuning. There's only so much you're going to get out of second-hand knowledge and experience.
I'm sure your university has an essay tutor and I suggest that you use them if your posts are any indication of your mastery of the english language. I'm being frank, not trolling.

Well since you're going to write a paper maybe you should write something on the basics of what tuning is about. Many pages on Google for this here's one on larger engines but the same stuff applies to our cars as well.

A nice full 8 pages of just TWO types of failure.
