    It means there are 16 valves that control the air in and out of the engine. 8 intake, and 8 exhaust.

    16 valve means each one of the cylinders in your engine has 4 valves: two for intake, two for exhaust. It will be better than a 4 cylinder engine, all things equal (ie same displacement, etc), that has only 3 or less valves per cylinder. However, it will not perform as well as the same engine with more than 4 valves per cylinder.
