MHD stage 2 questions (N54)

So I have just put the VRSF catless downpipes on my N54, the only other mod I have is a BMS DCI.
I'm looking at the available MHD maps and stage 2 recommends upgraded DP's but no mention of anything else.

Questions-
Do I really need to upgrade the FMIC, it's a daily driver, I won't be looking for long periods of time in boost so will increased IAT's even be an issue for me ?
I live in New England so its cold in the winter but can get pretty hot and humid in the summer.

I am currently running the stock charge pipe. I've never had a car with a BOV and I think the "whoosh" would end up driving me crazy. What are my options for either a very quiet BOV or a diverter setup that would hold increased boost. Some say the stock diverter valves should be able to hold boost on a stage 2 map....looking for experience here, opinions etc.

What about boost creep - is that an issue for N54's and how can I detect it, monitor it, fix it ?

Thanks in advance....
