So you can go over 15psi with just 5bar FPR or also need new injectors?

5 bar would get you some more boost safely

I guess I was thinking in terms of the simplest and cleanest solution

I hate to give up the electronic boost control that is built in.

I was thinking that I would rather not have to tap lines for an MBC, mount it, and adjust it. But, I suppose it is really no more trouble than attaching and adjusting the bleeder that I propose. So, the MBC cuts the top off the spike and the ECU goes from there. I guess that is as elegant as you could ask for.
