Brake Boosting puts strain on the driveline and Clutch and brakes obviously.

It would be the same as towing a trailer behind your car… you are putting unecessary load on all the moving parts in your engine and driveline.

Will it hurt every now and then? Probably not… would I suggest doing it every now and then? probably not.
