The turbo boost is controlled by the ECU: with stock map it is aprox. 8 psi and as you say, with decatted DPs, this target is reached faster due to the lower flow resistance. With JB4 map 2 (my case) the boost grown up to 15 psi due to the input signal of the modified ECU and, once again, those psi are reached faster due to the lower flow resistance of the decatted DPs.
