Got a link? Google doesn't get it.

Hopefully if dual is 8G then a single is 4G?

Yes, as long as you follow some guide lines.A good engine and not a engine with 200k on it. Also note C/R should be around 8-9 to1. Also keeping the total boost under 10psi. Look at it this way The Thunderbird Turbo coupe had that much boost on a stock 2.3 (just had lower C/R).They live fine for 150-200k miles.Any more than about 8psi boost and a set of forged pistons become needed,The boost is hard on the pistons and rings.
My friend ran a 351C 2V heads cast pistons with 7.8 C/R 177in supercharger 8 psi with no problems. That thing ripped up a 428CJ notchback GT.

My Bad ... it's Cobra Automotive, Inc. in CT, and they are out of catalogs. They also have Pent Roof Valve Covers.
