In my experience, I see about a 2x increase in space required between MyISAM and InnoDB. I believe this may be documented btw, check the InnoDB section of the manual.
I have been using InnoDB for a couple years now on databases up to 180GB. InnoDB has been very robust and I have only once come across a corruption after a crash of the DB or the operating system (linux).
