Its not so much compensating for extra air as it is for a condition called PTFB (Part Throttle/Full Boost).Plus the ECU controlls the boost amount in correlation to ambient temps & barometric pressure.The MBC or some self programmed EBC's just won't allow the ECU to correct for all the conditons listed above.This could be bad fo da engine.Its allways best to let the factory ECU do as much as possible.Spend the money for some engine management and let it control the boost safely.
