I had to use 100psi to pop mine out. Wear safety glasses, and have a thick piece of wood inside the caliper to catch the piston. If your fingers are in the way, you will not get them back, so be very, very careful.

The on-the-car method is certainly safer, and the 1000+ psi your brake system can provide should get any piston out ....
