potencia maxima
Explanation:
If the term is written with a capital letter it refers to power- be it maximum or minimum. It is the power of the engine.
If it is written with a lower case p, then it stands for pressure- in the cylinders of the engine, for ex., as my colleague said in the beginning.

disagree  DocT: sorry but this text /link does not refer to medicine and respiratory parameters, it refers to car systems. Nevertheless your logo is great! Congratulations for your choice.
