2008 Alfa Romeo Autodelta 159 J4 2.2 C

The sporty Alfa Romeo 159 JTS has finally received a tuning kit from British tuner Autodelta. Consisting of a new body kit and a supercharger, the Autodelta 159 J4 2.2 C gives the 159 even starker appearance and much better dynamics.

The heart of the program is the new Rotrex supercharger unit. Together with reengineered aluminum intake manifold, NGK Iridium spark plugs and a remapped ECU, the supercharger increases the vehicle’s 2.2-liter engine’s output from 185 bhp to 245 hp and its peak torque from 230 Nm (169 lb-ft) to 290 Nm (213 lb-ft).

The stylish and energetic body kit consisting of a new front splitter, rear apron and side skirts, enhances the 159′s aerodynamics while increasing airflow into the engine compartment.
