I ran 1 on my00 for about a yr with no probs, you will need to find out when your fuel cut comes in. My00 was 1.2 bar so i set mine at 1.1 bar, if you plan on doing the updates in view your scoob within the next few months, dont bother with boost controling.

Looks like you have already had a re-map I would stick with this or try and get a more aggressive re-map if that's what you fancy (don't blame you one iota ) - it will be safer in the long run. MBC's can take the decision to get an engine re-build right out of your hands
