keeping the boost down will keep the engine from blowing.
To make it handle more boost you'll have to replace the pistons, rods, sleeves with stronger ones. This can get very expensive.

The farther you press the pedal the faster the turbo will spin making more boost til the wastegate opens.

EDIT: correction the farther you press the pedal the more fuel and air will be sucked into the engine thereby creating more exhaust flow and consequently the turbo spins faster with this increase of exhaust, making more boost.
