TERM DEFINITIONS

Engine capacity: The amount of fuel that the engine can fill up with. Usually, the       higher it is, the better. However, old cars used to have up to 10 or 11 liters but with a power output of 25hp... today, the 1.1 liter Peugeot has 60hp... it all depends how the engine is engineered.

Number of valves: Every cylinder in the engine needs air and fuel intakes, and air and fuel exhausts... the valves provide that type of intake/exhaust. High performance cars usually have more valves per cylinder, making the engine less noisy and more powerful. For example the 206 with 4 cylinders might have 4 valves per cylinder (2 in and 2 out) for a total of 4x4=16V.

Engine power: Well, it is usually measured in Kw or hp (horsepower) , which has nothing to do with horses... but is simply a measure of the power of the engine. the higher the better. Tuning up the engine will increase its net power output thus improving your car's speed.
