There is no reason why the boost should be even touching the coolant. Is it overheating the car? It is normal for coolant to go into the tank as it expands due to heat.

unless a sleeve is cracked and pushing coolant with presure or a blown head gasket can do that too

True but I am sure it would be a little more of a problem than just filling the reserve tank.
