Improving the vehicle fuel economy is a must due to the climate change and energy issues. To meet both performance and fuel consumption requirements, a 4-2-1 pipe exhaust manifold has been designed to reduce residual exhaust gas in combustion. To address this, at low load, Exhaust VVT is advanced and internal EGR is used.
