Default Re: turbocharged quad-4????

Now that everybody has posted I'll put in my 2 cents.

I was working at an Oldsmobile Dealership when the Quad 4 first came and was told by the Zone Rep that the Quad 4 was designed to stand up to 300HP and the plan was to take it to those power levels. The factory also had a plan to Turbo the Quad 4 but it never happened.

As for the Fiero's the 4 cylinder engine was the piece of crap Iron Duke 151ci

I remember doing PDI's with the FWD cars equipped with the Quad 4 and they would flash the converter to 6,000 RPM and torque steer like crazy. That engine liked to RPM.
