If you refer to overboost as firewall thrust, then there is no time limit since you're exceeding the limits of the engine. 5 secs or 5 mins of firewall thrust will ground the airplane.

"Ace the technical pilot interview" by Bristow comes highly recommended by people who were recently hired by CX. Prep book by Capt. X,Y and Z is also decent reference, but a little dated.
