Although not even close to perfec, those look awesome for a stock manifold. I was unaware they were this good, which would explain getting 30whp pretty much not possible. I was expecting a log type. In this case, I doubt you'll get more than 15-20whp, no matter how perfect the header design is.

on that note Jim Feuling made a 231mph (i think) turbo Quad 4 in a Cutlass Supreme

 

muyahahahaha!

 

That partictular Quad 4 made around 750hp.

 

Also, another thing he did w/ a Quad' motor....

 

"In 1988 he received the "Outstanding Technical Achievement Award" from the National Engineering Societies for his "clean sheet" design, development and manufacture of the 2.0L Oldsmobile "BE" Quad-4 racing engine used in the Oldsmobile Aerotech Research Vehicle (267.339 mph International Record, driven by A. J. Foyt). His radical design for the Oldsmobile BE 4-cylinder engine developed the highest specific power output of any automotive engine in history (over 1,270 hp from 121 cubic inches)."
