It is talking about cars, the complete sentences are:

- "a venturi beneath the engine for front-end downforce".

Thank you very much

Explanation:
"La fuerza del servo en la dirección hidráulica". Servo in Spanish is the correct term, and it can be used as a suffix like, "servomotor".

"un venturi bajo el motor para generar efecto suelo en el frente".
Downforce has no exact translation into Spanish. I've heard the term "efecto suelo" in sports car design.

Hope it helps. Good luck.

SERVODIRECCIÓN / FUERZA DE ADHESION AL SUELO


Explanation:
Mar, en este contexto estos son los términos más apropiados por su uso general (al menos, en España). La primera frase quedaría como "La fuerza de la servodirección en la conducción", y la segunda como "un venturi bajo el motor para proporcionarle adherencia al suelo". ESPERO TE SIRVA.
