Date of Issue: October 26, 1984 EVALUATION OF SPEARCO PERFDRMANCE PRODUCTS, INC.‘S ADD—ON TURBOCHARGER KIT WITH AN OPTIONAL INTERCOOLER FOR 2.8 LITER TOYOTA SUPRA AND CRESSIDA VEHICLES FOR EXEMPTION FROM THE PROHIBITIONS IN VEKICLE CODE SECTION 27156 IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 2222, TITLE 13, OF THE CALIFORNIA ADMINISTRATIVE CODE. by Mobile Source Division State of California Air Resources Board 9528 Telstar Avenue El Monte, CA 91731 (This report has been reviewed by the staff of the California Air Resources Board and approved for publication. Approval does not signify that the contents necessarily reflect the views and policies of the Air Resources Board, nor does mention of trade names or commerical products constitute endorsement or recommendation for use.)

SUMMARY Spearco Performance Products, Inc. of 7541 Woodman Place, Yan Nuys, California 91405, has requested an update to the existing Air Resources Board‘s Excutive Order (E.0.) No. D—140—1 which exempted five (5) Spearco turbo kits (including optional intercoolers)} from the prohibitions in Vehicle Code Section 27156 for installation on 1982 through 1984 Toyota Supra and Cressida vehicles. The applicant requested an update of the above E.0. to include fuel—injected 1985 model—year Toyotas. Based on test data from previous comparative exhaust emissions tests performed on a 1984 Toyota Supra and the fact that the engine and emission control systems of 1985 fuel—injected Toyota Supras and Cressidas are carryovers (identical) from the 1984 model—year, the staff concludes that the Spearco‘s turbocharger kits ({with and without the optional intercooler) will not adversely affect exhaust emission from 1985 and older model—year Toyota Supras and Cressidas equipped with 168 CID fuel—injected six—cylinder engines. The staff recommends that Spearco Performance Products, Inc. be granted an update exemption for their add—on turbocharger kits to include 1985 Toyota Supras and Cressidas and that Executive Order D—140—4 be issued.

EVALUATION OF SPEARCO PERFORMANCE PRODUCTS, INC.‘S ADD—ON TURBOCHARGER KIT WITH AN OPTIONAL INTERCOOLER FOR 2.8 LITER TOYOTA SUPRA AND CRESSIDA VEHICLES FOR EXEMPTION FROM THE PROKIBITIONS IN VEHICLE CODE SECTION 27156 IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 2222, TITLE 13, OF THE CALIFORNIA ADMINISTRATIVE CODE. I. INTRODUCTION Spearco Performance Products, Inc., of 7541 Woodman Place, Van Nuys, California 91405, has requested an update to the existing Air Resources Board‘s Executive Order (E.0.) No. D—140—1 which exempted five (5) Spearco turbo kits {including optional intercoolers) from the prohibitions in Vehicle Code Section 27156 for 1982 through 1984 Toyota Supra and Cressida vehicles. The applicant requested an update of the above E.0. to include 1985 model—year Toyotas. The list of kits and their applications is shown below: Turbo Kit No. Vehicle Models 9898 1982 Supra 9899 1983 Supra 9900 1983 Cressida 9909 {intercooled) 1982—1984 Supra 9910 (intercooled) 1983—1984 Cressida 9909—A {intercooled) 1985 Supra and Cressida II. CONCLUSION Based on test data from previous comparative exhaust emission tests performed on a 1984 Toyota Supra and the fact that the engines and emission control systems of the 1985 fuel—injected Toyota Supras and Cressidas are carryovers (identical) from the 1984 model—year, 168 CID, Toyotas, the staff concludes that Spearco‘s turbocharger kits (with and without the

optional intercooler) will not adversely affect exhaust emissions from 1985 and older model—year Toyota Supras and Cressidas equipped with fuel—injected 168 CID six—cylinder engines. III. RECOMMENDATIONS The staff recommends that Spearco be granted an update exemption for their add—on turbocharger kits to include 1985 Toyota Supras and Cressidas and that Executive Order D—140—4 be issued. IV. TURBOCHARGER KIT DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION A detailed description of Spearco‘s turbocharger kit and its operation can be found in the previous ARB staff report dated February 6, 1984. V. DISCUSSIDN Spearco Performance Products, Inc.‘s turbocharger kits applicable for 1982 Toyota Supra and 1983—1984 Toyota Supra and Cressida having a 168 CID, fuel—injected engine were granted an exemption (E.0. No. D—140—1) on February 6, 1984. The exemption was granted on the basis that the effectiveness of the vehicle‘s pollution control system was not reduced. Evaluation consisted of comparative (baseline versus turbocharged/not intercooled and baseline versus turbocharged/intercooled) CVS—75 and HFE tests at normal certification dynamometer road loading. The applicant requested that the exemption be updated to include 1985 Toyota Supra and Cressida with a fuel—injected, six—cylinder, 168 CID engine for their turbocharger kit No. 9909—A.

_In response to the request, the staff compared the engine design of 1984 to 1985 model—year Toyota Supra and Cressida vehicles with a 168 CID engine and found that the engines and emission control systems on these 1985 model—year vehicles are carryovers from 1984 models. The 1985 models will have the same degree of performance/emissions impact as the previous modelfyear vehicles. Since the data from a 1984 Toyota Supra test vehicle showed that the vehicle‘s emissions were not adversely affected when the turbocharger kit (with and without the intercooler) was installed, the Spearco kit will have no adverse effect on the 1985 vehicles. No additional testing was required or performed for updating the exemption.
