if you keep the throttle above 1/4 the ECU will remain in closed loop. It's not a good way to go but it shouldn't blow up the engine.
You can also pick up an adjustable FPR and turn up the pressure to help out.

Best bet, get a P72.

that's sort of like predicting the weather.
It's mainly up to how you drive and your setup. If you drive like a grandma and don't get into open loop operation, a week or so of 10-15minutes worth of daily driving then I wouldn't think you would have a problem.
