Normally when you go up hills and ****, it's kinda hard not to boost the motor. It's do-able, but not recommended. . .

You'll be fine hook up your boost gauge so you know when to back off the throttle if need be.

If you do start to boost up your car will fall on its face because the ecu will do a fuel cut.. Youll be fine..
