And we all thought that 328bhp was enough for a fwd car - now they have bolted a supercharger onto the Alfa 147 3.7 GTA AM engine, and de-tuned it from 450 to 400 bhp....

Should be interesting, and I can imagine that the guys at Autodelta are impatiently awaiting the new 4x4 Brera and 159 models!!!

I have a feeling that this car might even be capable, theoretically, of 300km/h +!



......"Pushing the barriers forward they certainly do, as Autodelta have also re-worked the engine and fuelling, to achieve an astounding 400bhp! Once again this power is all going through the front wheels, and once again they are defying convention. Will it work? Autodelta's team it seems have no understanding of the meaning of convention?

The critics laughed when we announced 328bhp in the first 147 GTA AM, but it worked. Alfa have provided an excellent chassis and
package to build on, and we just took every area, engine, transmission, brakes, suspension, electronics and styling, to the maximum"
