This Executive Order is granted based on submitted emnissions test data which showed that the PowerPack kit, did not adversely affect tailpipe emissions during comparative Cold Start 505 Federal Test Procedures. Results of the baseline and modified emission levels are listed below. A 2000 Ford F—350 with a 7.3L diesel engine, and certified to the low emission vehicle (LEV) emission standards was used as the test vehicle. HC CO NOx PM Opacity Baseline 0.57 1.6 7.4 0.150 _ 9.0% Modified > 0.43 1.5 7.4 0.115 16.9% Difference —0.14 —0 1%~ 0.0 —0.035 Test results during comparative Cold Start 505 Federal Test Procedure showed that exhaust emissions of the vehicle with the PowerPack kit installed did not cause exhaust emissions to exceed the baseline emissions by more than the allowed limits of 10 percent or 0.1 grams per mile on hydrocarbon (HC) and oxides of nitrogen (NOx), 15 percent or 1.0 grams per mile carbon monoxide (CO), and 15 percent or 0.03 grams per mile on PM as specified in the "Procedures for Exemption of Add—On and Modified Parts." Opacity test results which were generated using the highest reading on the Smoke Opacity Test were below the 40 percent standard. This Executive Order is also based on the On Board Diagnostic II (OBD II) testing conducted on the same vehicle. Test data showed that the PowerPack when installed on the vehicle did not affect the vehicle‘s ability to perform its OBD II monitoring.
