Upping boost will always put added pressure on the turbos and components downstream. The turbo spins much faster and hence wears more quickly - we add downpipes to help the breathing and reduce back pressure. It also generates significantly more heat which is why we add cold air intakes, intercoolers and meth. It generates more torque hence the clutch, gearbox and axles will be under more strain..
Whilst 335i's stand up well to significant abuse, the harder you push things the more wear you'll get.
But it's great!
