I have run many bottles through my car on a 100 shot, stock bottom end and 91 octane. I have thought about going to a 150 shot but wouldn't want to do it without a standalone. A critical component as always is the tune.

You shouldn't have a problem spraying that amount. A couple things to consider though is for the cost and how much you're wanting to spray, a plate system would be more than capable of doing what you're looking to do. If you do want to use a direct port though, I'd recommend using a dedicated fuel system that's capable of low fuel pressure. The reason is that at 55-60PSI fuel pressure the fuel jets on a direct are extremely small on low HP shots. For example, at 150HP on stock fuel pressure a direct port fuel jet may only be a .010. That's small enough that literally any type of contaminate (even a grain of sand) in your fuel system can block a jet and cause a lean condition. If you were to use a dedicated fuel system though, you can lower the fuel pressure to 5-10PSI. At 7PSI on the same HP the fuel jet would be a .019. Still small, but it's almost twice as large as the jet for 60PSI. If the most you'll ever spray on the car would be 200HP, a plate system would be the best way to go. It's easily tunable, easy to change the jets, and can be installed in a few hours in a garage. It's also going to be half the cost of a direct port. Direct port systems don't really start to shine until you get up around 250HP and above. At that point distribution becomes much more critical and tuning variances between cylinders can be much larger; so the tunability of a direct port makes it worth it in order to keep your engine safe.
