I have personally sprayed 150. This is on top of a modded engine for a total of 563rwhp.
If you're going to spray a modded engine, the key is to have enough fuel pump to supply the fuel ,and stay rich when you spray(something I'm having to deal with now with a bad pump)
The vette has the same engine LS1 as the F body cars, and there are a lot of guys spraying 175-200hp
I'll personally stay at a max of 150, and I keep the 124hp jets in it most of the time

I have a stock LS6 motor in my 99 with a BIG cam. Im spraying a 150 shot and running it fat (rich) with 5 degree taking out. rule of thumb is 1 degree every 50 shot. ALways better to get it tuned and spray it then not tuned and sprayed it. Thats the safer way. We pulled alot of timing to be safe. Good Luck!
