What happens when heatsoaked?

Hi,
I was wondering what happens technically if a RS4 gets heatsoaked (chipped car).
It's hot, you're standing still for a while and the intake temp gets higher.
My mapping is asking for 20-21 psi, but in this case I see 24-25 psi (no peak, but holding). This is what I noticed when running hot. Accelleration seems to be fine though, no holding back, but it bothers me because with so much boost the ecu would need to <beep> timing a lot!
On launch: Will only the ignition timing <beep> and/or will the ECU try to compensate by giving more boost in order trying to deliver the requested load?
I'm trying to find answers here..
p.s. Did a leak test yesterday, and found no boost leaks.
