No! AVB has a very weak crankshaft, connecting rods and pistons!

I would say it will... Even though avb is weaker than a Avx/avf engine, the gtb2260 vk is quite forgiving and will build boost linearly...n

Boost isn´t factor which affects for engine durability, you can boost 5 bars if you like without problems, but not with that tiny turbo. Cylinder pressure, EMP and temperatures affects.

AVB has same crankshaft as AVX and AVF. AVB connecting rods and pistons can handle 400hp/600Nm if everything made properly. AVX/AVF pistons and rods are ~10% more durable than AVB. Forget boost pressure and focus on air flow instead. Boost is not air flow.
