Capacity doesnt have that much to do with the headline power figure. It's the ability to rev (without the internals failing ) that determines how much power an engine can make. Think of an engine as an air pump. More rpm, more air is pumped=more power.

Not saying a Uno can do it but just making the point about power and capacity.

I have owned back in the day 220bhp(1989) Uno and know of one with a very near to 300 bhp that was running an 8 injector set up with water injection so DONT knock them if modded correctly they can fly and embarrased a good few sporty cars
