1 bar=14.5 psi.Look on this site-
Online Conversion - Pressure Conversion
Don't know what you can safely run though.

Sorry, I am corrected.
However, it depends how far above sea level you are

14.5 psi = 1 bar. It does not matter how far above sea level you are.
If you are say 2000m above sea level the atmospheric pressure is less, in both bar and psi.
It's like saying a mile is shorter in Scotland than in Wales.

With the correct mapping you can run upto around 1.5 Bar,
If your doing a bleed valve job, then 1.1 - 1.2 bar, but wouldn't recommend it.
I'm running 1.3 Bar with Standard 2.0l at the moment and has been fine for 5000 hard miles.
Also common misconception, Is very hard to 'Fry' piston rings, as the pistons will melt first.
