turbo boost shouldn't damage a cpu because it operates within the cpu's limits as long as the cpu is running at stock speed and is not overclocked.
leaving turbo boost enabled after overclocking the cpu over it's limits is not recommended. because the cpu would try to oc itself beyond it's already overclocked frequency and would very likely crash.
what do you mean by 'quit overclocking'?
