Taken from an autospeed article on the B4 Liberty:
we saw a 0.95 Bar peak boost figure in the mid-range, dropping to 0.75 Bar in the top-end. But once heat soak set in after a couple of runs, peak boost slipped to 0.8 Bar and top-end boost remained around 0.70-0.75 Bar.
So that's about 14psi peak, with around 12psi once up to full temperature (getting flogged :D ).

Watch out for the 'Valley Of Death' though, at 4000-4500 rpm... they usually see a boost drop of 4-5psi.
