Autodelta Presents 2008 Alfa Romeo Brera J5 3.2 Compressore

Autodelta introduced the Brera J5 3.2 Compressore ‘Model Year 2008’ (MY) which has been developed specifically for hot and tropical climate requirements featuring a new air-to-air intercooler mounted behind the front bumper and new engine mapping.

The 3.2 V6 engine’s power curve has been revised to allow stronger performance at peak revs, which are now raised to 6,400rpm and peak power is 352 HP (up by 4 HP over the J5, and 92 HP over the standard model) and improved torque which now is 435 Nm (up by 5 Nm). According to the UK based Alfa Romeo tuner, 0-100 km/h (62 mph) is achieved in 5.3 seconds while top speed is over 260 km/h (162 mph). -Continued after the jump

The programm for the revised engine was overseen by Autodelta’s head of R&D, Sergio Truzzi; while testing was carried out in Greece due to the correct hot climatic conditions.

Athens makes an ideal base for our extreme climate testing programme,” says Autodelta Managing Director Jano Djelalian, “as well as the state-of-the-art workshops available we see very hot weather conditions right throughout the summer and the rugged surface of the roads, plus incessant dust and larger inanimate objects allow us to rigorously test our cars and evolve meaningful, practical solutions. The development team has been based at Auto Corse (in Athens, Greece),and we are delighted with the level of facilities made available to us”.
