Will this setup work with my stock 300SDL injection pump and not frag the engine? I have not modified it. I did remove the alda, egr, and smog stuff under the airbox. I know without the alda I have no overboost protection. I'm more concerned about running too lean.

Diesels just don't work that way.
Diesels ALWAYS run lean. Air intake is not throttled. The engine always takes maximum air. Diesels usually run at lambda=18 or leaner at full power and much leaner at part throttle.
Basically how a diesel EGTs work is:
More fuel for the same air --> higher EGTs
Less fuel for the same air --> lower EGTs
If you install a bigger turbo and add more boost you won't raise the power unless you also increase the fueling.
