Default how much nitrous can a D16Y8 breathe

Putting a D16Y8 in my CRX has 10.5 CR JE pistons, eagle rods balanced assembly ARP head studs running off a D16Z6 ECU. Was planning on running a dual stage system with a 50 shot hooked to the pedal and another 50 hooked to a button for as needed. Both these will be a wet system with MSD timing controller and all necessary safety items. Will be tuned on a dyno so make sure the mixture is right. If I wan't to go more how much can a 1.6 take before it starts to choke it? I've heard of chevy 350's that started to choke at 200 shot. Also the top end is currently stock but planning on valves, springs, port, cam later down the road.

You probably want to post this in the F.I forum.
But anyway, my old 96 D16Y8 took a 55 dry Zex shot w/ no problems before I boosted it (only sprayed thru 2 bottles). I also installed Zex kits on several D16Y7s sparaying the 55 and they went thru countless numbers of bottles, none ever complained.
