Manually increasing boost and using a bleed type FCD to prevent fuel cut are ok for a cheap quick fix but the increased boost will cause the motor to run lean. It’s not just the increased boost that can stress the bottom end but the weak mixture due to lack of fuel/air mapping that can cause big problems like holed pistons and burnt valves.
You could be realising that risk you are willing to take sooner rather than later.
