i would of thought just turning the boost up for a track day without any other mapping would be very bad for your engine as you are really going to stress it out for the time you are on the track

If you got one of the fabled ScoobyECU or other plug in remap chip variants, then you could have it fitted with a switch, so chip for track, normal for road driving.
Doubt you would want to switch back down though!!!

Running at less than max boost would be fine, as the map covers all sorts of boosts, loads, throttle positions etc. not jusy out and out full boost!
You'd save fuel, engine stress and that big grin at 0.75 bar boost !
