do you think it would go through (2) 1/16 aluminum sheets at once? putting both pieces in together

1/16 x 2 = 3,175mm (sorry, I am Russian ;) ). No, it will not. The reason is very simple - the gap between the hole and the punch is about 2 millimeters (at least in my exemplar of the tool). So, two sheets of 1/16 will not go in.

I don't see the psi requirements. will this flange 18 gauge sheet metal with a 110 psi portable compressor?

Just tested mine on 1,2 mm (18 gauge) mild steel (ink-jet printer frame :) ), it does flange it. However, the ledge on the lips is about 1 mm high (that is less than 18 gauge metal thickness already) and the ledge height on the actual flange is about 0,8 mm only. So it will not give you a smooth joint (1,2-0,8=0,4mm reverse ledge). But it makes holes in this steel easily.

How high gauge will this do?

It works 18 gauge well that's the thickest.

How wide is the flange that this tool makes?

The flange is basically 1/2 inch wide.
