Awesome bit of kit and very well presented! 
Don't go by what the DEFI boost gauges say mate.
Also give it large and forget about the engine...... I ran my new 2.5l Cosworth engine in for 2 days (had it mapped) and then cained it around Castle Coombe at Japfest the following Saturday and then dragged it down Avon Park the following day last month.
It's all as sweat as a nut, and was the intended use for the car anyhow, so it was all built to withstand it (my **** did go on the first full boar launch on the drag strip though, in case my new twin plate clutch would shat itself)
You have spent the money, so ENJOY it!!!

Is that Defi reading indicating 2.1 bar or hitting the stop? It could be higher than the reading if so. Should really get a higher reading gauge to make sure you know what is going on.
Fantastic car BTW

That must have been some serious outlay, I mean really, really massive. Looks good though, come up to a midland hillclimb so I can get a good look at it.
