The combustion temperature is determined largely by the correct mixture ratio of fuel to air if the boost goes up ( meaning more air is being packed into the cylinder ) then the computer must compensate by lengthening the time the injectors are open to inject more fuel and keep the proper mixture
If that didn't happen the engine would run lean and if lean long enough the exhaust temp will exceed the rating the valves are designed for
yes I know how the system works I have just never seen it protrayed the way u did,Its called EGT and it for valves and pistons etc just never seen it as :Fuel delivery has to match the combustion volume to keep the valves in the correct temperature range
