If you are absolutely 100% confident that you have an overboost protection in your tune, and that you are safe to bump into it... keep cranking it up. I have seen boost controllers that dont do anything until you get pretty high up there in the duty cycle and then become sensitive to each % once you are in the sweet spot.

Reconfirm you have overboost protection, then crank it up 5% and try a pull and repeat until you either hit the end or the start seeing boost go up.

You can also ease into the throttle to prevent hitting overboost protection, which would be even more ideal and how I would do it in my own car.
