I was asking the same question about two months ago.
And after mucho looking around and phoning various people, I came to the conclusion that standard peak boost should be 0.7 Bar (10 PSI), but the safe running pressure can be as much as 1.2 Bar (17.5 PSI). This answer is not 100%, its just the outcome I managed to obtain. Hope this helps.

Not build year - what model Year? (MY)
A late 1998 car can be an MY99 with the phase 2 engine, in which case the boost target for the car would be 13.7 psi IIRC

sorry mate,
it's an early 98 with the coil in the middle of the manifold and it has the tdo4
I'm getting 13psi peak but was getting almost 16psi peak.
Thanks, Mo.

Edit
phase 1.5 engine I think.
