Four-valve combustion chamber

This type of combustion chamber has two exhaust valves and two intake valves. The extra valves result in an increase in flow in and out of the chamber. One intake valve may be opened a bit wider than the other one. This creates a swirling action, which reduces low-speed emissions.
