Maps are great idea but right now I'm just looking at a prototype. It's hard to make a map when you don't even know things like what sort of max boost you can get.

Also keep in mind that this system is limited, and you most likely will be maxing out the motor very quickly as you move up through gears/revs. At that point your boost pressure will just start to fall no matter what your map says
No, the map in reality is a max acceptable boost level. Ideally the values would also be realistic targets you could anticipate reaching, but the reality of it is that in many cases (especially high engine rpm) it will never be reached.
