Engine Protection w/ stage1 APC

How well does the spg9 stage1 apc protect the engine?
I'm asking because since installing a 3.0fpr and Brad's modified vac.advance my boost is higher (and much smoother) then ever.
From what I've read, the 3.0 fpr won't supply enough fuel for deep red-zone boost. I'm very happy with the power my engine is putting out and don't want to pursue anything more than 15-16psi.
Will this set-up endanger my engine? Does the APC protect the engine from leaning out, or does it just detect knock and then back off the boost?
To put it simply: If the APC lets me boost to a certain level, is it safe to assume that there's enough fuel & air & correct timing to do this relatively safely?
