I'm running 20-21 peak boost. I've heard of 24 on a stock turbo but had arp head studs installed and other basic add ons.........hope that helps. For longevity reasons, I would keep it around 21 psi. 
Oops....yeah...I'm on 91 CA **** gass......Tuned by Shiv at Vishnu.

I was doing 28PSI peak before and after the alcohol kit. I was able to hold 24-25PSI for a few seconds in 4th , 5th and 6th gear.
I ran my car at this levels on 91 basicly since I did the full exhaust, MBC CAI and the first tunning. Absolutely not a single issue of detonation yet.

there isn't set pressure for 91 gas. it all depends on your car's condition and mods. For example, if you add more timing to your car, the car will detonate like crazy at even 18 psi. but if you really restard the timing you can push to like 23 psi. And during the cold winter, you can boost even higher. Only way to find out is to tune your car and see when it starts to detonate.
