maximum amount of movie on KVCDx2? Fits 2 hour+ movies?

I just encoded Enemy of the State (2 hr. 12 min.) with the default KVCDx2 template and i got a result of 1.12 GB! Whats the maximum amount of movie that i can fit on ONE cd with the KVCDx2 template?

How low of a CQ do you think i can go to until i can fit the movie on one CD, but not lose that much quality?

do you think if i used the original KVCD template, this movie would fit on one CD? Does the KVCDx2 produce greater file sizes? Also, if i use the KVCDx2 2-CD do u think it would fit on two CD's, or woudl it be too large for 2-CD's since when using the 1CD its too large for it?
