Subject: 155 Q4?

Extract :
1992: World record in the desert of the Salt lake in Utah: A slightly
modified Alfa 155 Q4 (1995 ccm3 with bigger Turbo, enhanced exhaut system
and 7.75:1 compression) delivers 365 HP instead of 190 HP (standard setup).
In 2 runs, the Alfa 155 approaches 300 km/h (297.333 km/H). It hereby
breakes the record for the category G/PS, that means cars under 2L,
production-like with supercharger (turbo)

From http://www.alfaclub.lu

Does any body have any further information on this beast? Like who owned the
car?
My recollection is that it was a factory effort.
