As soon as you get settled in, you might see if you can find another dealer that will be more willing to help...
I will ask, is the fuel management a piggy back ECU?
As many VQ engines as there are, you cant assume that all of them will be the same.....

I think more or less it would contribute to certian things on the engine (meaning internals).. Its possible that some engines arent torqued right, or there are certain other things that cause it to fail... Obviously, throwing on a turbo is gonna make these defects more apparent...
I assume your running under 10 PSI, yes? Also, the fuel management systems have to have some built in range of safety, to prevent such things.. A lot of the really good piggy bcak ECU (at least the JWT one for the Q's supercharger) base the ignition open time upon the MAF voltage.. I dont really see how sudden changes in the CAS could be blamed on the harness, unless it is split somewhere and grounds itself...
The bottom line is, by adding any sort of boost, your taking a risk.. its possible that youll occur no hardaches, or you could blow the motor after 2 runs..... But the answer to the question, will it cause more stress on the engine at lower RPM or higher RPM, i definitely say at higher RPM
