According to the FSMs, peak boost is 6.56psi for the S4 and 8.25psi for the S5. In stock form, neither will hold this all the way to redline, which may explain why people keep quoting the figures above.

Mine spikes to about 14psi then settles at about 12psi. I use a manual boost controller, to increase the boost to these levels.
Without the boost controller I was getting about 5-6psi, which I think was reduced over stock because the stock IC is front mounted with some pretty twisty IC piping, causing a pressure drop.
