So a character can life 15 kg per strength point, lift 5 kg above their heads. Without a test.

Max human would be (lets say str 7 for hardcore lifters):
Lift:105 kg (231 pnds or so)
Lift above head:35 kg (165 pnds ish)

Aint much I'd hate to say. I couldn't find any real olympic style weight lifting records, but I have seen mention of people lifting nearly 1000 pnds dead lift....Little bit of a diff there.

So, I'd say a guy that can lift that 900 to 1000 pnds would be 7 by SR4 rules. He's need to have a strength of 30 to do so, without tests. With a body+strength test his max ability (if his body was max 6) would be 20 dice, and if all succeeded, he would max lift 300 kg (660 pnds).

Dosen't seem right to me.
