Does it still run the same? Is it making any strange noises?

If the boost spike happened only briefly and you haven't noticed any changes in driveability, you're probably fine.

As long as it didn't detonate, you're ok.

what is your octane on pump gas and who is your tuner. Your tuner usually sets the max boost your car will see, but if you have an EBC, then you can up it. Do you have an EBC? if so be careful as that is a good way to detonate while running crap pump gas.
