Definitions:
24 Valve System: A multi-valve or multivalve engine is one where each cylinder has more than
two valves. A multi-valve engine has better breathing and may be able to operate at higher
revolutions per minute (RPM) than a two-valve engine, delivering more power.
Power-to-weight ratio: is a measurement of actual performance of any engine or power source.
It is also used as a measurement of performance of a vehicle as a whole, with the engine's power
output being divided by the weight (or mass) of the vehicle, to give a metric that is independent
of the vehicle's size.
