turbocharged quad-4????
Was there EVER a car sold by G.M. (of any brand, any year) with a turbocharged Quad 4 engine? I am trying to find out if such a car was ever sold to the general public.
Thanks for any info... Bill

Re: turbocharged quad-4????
Bill I don't believe there was ever a factory produced turbo-quad4. I was a service manager for a Pontiac store for 20 years and I never saw one. But to be sure call the folks at SLP in Toms River NJ 732-349-2109. If anyone would know they will.

Mark, the consensus at SLP Performance is.... "they are not sure."
That, from the three techs working today. Hard question... Thanks again.  Bill

Re: turbocharged quad-4????
Bill, as you may remember I ran a 2.8 V6 Cadillac FWD for many years with GM sponsorship through Hydramatic. The Quad 4 Olds was my main competition for many years. The fastest I remember being the one fielded by Russ Abrams. To my knowledge no Quad 4 was ever produced, from the factory, with a turbo. BTW the Quad 4 was first produced in 1989 in the Olds Calais. You might want to contact Russ at GM Hydramatic, he currently runs a SS/IA Pontiac Firebird and posts on both forums.Jim

Jim,
I had already talked to Russ, and he'd agreed with you that there were NO turbocharged Quad 4's ever sold to the public in an OEM application. I didn't think there were. Thanks for the info!!! Bill
