        EVALUATION OF THE ADVANCED    TURBO SYSTEMS ADD—ON TURBOCHARGER KIT
            MODEL NO. ATS 6.9L FOR    INSTALLATION IN FORD MOTOR COMPANY
               HEAVY—DUTY VEHICLES    POWERED BY A 6.9 LITER NAVISTAR
                      INTERNATIONAL   HEAVY—DUTY DIESEL ENGINE

1.     INTRODUCTION

       Advanced Turbo Systems {ATS) of 5919 South 350 West, Murray, Utah,

84107, has applied for exemption from ihe prohibitions of Vehicle Code Section

27156 for their add—on turbocharger kit Model No. ATS 6.9L for 1983—1987 Ford

Motor Company heavy—duty vehicles powered by the 6.9 liter Navistar

International heavy—duty diesel engine.

       ATS has submitted a completed application, all the necessary information

and comparative exhaust emissions data.

II.    CONCLUSION

       Based on the submitted information and the comparative exhaust emissions

tests performed on a 1986 Ford F—250 heavy—duty diesel truck, the staff

concludes that the installation of the ATS turbocharger kit Model No. 6.9L

will not adversely affect exhaust emissions from the vehicles for which the

exemption has been requested.

III.   RECOMMENDATIONS

       The staff recommends that ATS be granted an exemption for this

turbocharger kit for use on 1983—1987 Ford Motor Company heavy—duty vehicles

powered by the 6.9 liter Navistar International heavy—duty diesel engine and

that Executive Order D—171 be issued.

IV.    TURBOCHARGER KIT DESCRIPTION

       The purpose of the ATS turbocharger system is to increase the power

output of the engine by increasing the volumetric efficiency of it by

compressing the intake charge to pressures above that of the atmosphere.      This


increased pressure allows a greater charge density to enter the combustion

chamber providing more oxygen for combustion.      The maximum fuel delivery is

slightly increased in order to maintain proper air—fuel ratios with the

increased air flow from the turbocharger when it is providing positive

manifold pressure {boost).

       The major components of the system include a 0.96 A/R ratio AiResearch

Model No. TO4B turbocharger, custom intake adaptors, exhaust tubing, air

cleaner assembly, brackets, hoses and the hardware necessary to complete the

installation.

       Maximum positive manifold pressure is limited to 12 psig by the size of

the turbine and the compressor.      The maximum engine speed is regulated by the

OEM fue! injection governor which is not modified by the installation of the

kit.   Therefore, by controlling maximum engine speed, maximum turbine speed

and corresponding boost pressures are also controlled.

       No OQOEM emission controls are removed or disconnected when the

turbocharger kit is installed.

       Installation instructions, included in every kit, show the kit installer

how to properly install the turbocharger system and adjust the maximum fuel

delivery properly (see Appendix 1).     A prototype identification label is shown

in Appendix 2.

¥.     TURBOCHARGER KIT EVALUATION

       Evaluation of the ATS turbocharger kit included analysis of all

submitted information to confirm that it meets the requirements for the

exemption, a comparison of the submitted exhaust emissions data, and a

comparison of the confirmatory emissions data generated at the Haagen—Smit

Laboratory.


      The test vehicle was a 1986 Ford F—250 pick—up with an automatic

transmission.     ATS had requested in writing that the 1987 Ford heavy—duty

diesel vehicles be included in the exemption.              The certification documents

show no difference between the 1986 and 1987 vehicles.              For this reason the

1986 Ford truck was an acceptable test vehicle.

      ATS performed comparative exhaust emissions tests at FCI International

Testing, Inc., in Santa Ana, CA, on the 1986 Ford F—250 described earlier.

The test program used was the "Test Program for Add—On Turbocharger Kits for

Heavy—Duty Engines" (see Appendix 3).        The results of these tests are shown in
Table 1.

      Although it was not required for the evaluation of the ATS

turbocharger system, back—to—back CVS—72 emissions tests with particulate

sampling were performed.    The purpose of these additional tests was to

examine the effect of a turbocharger on the particulate emissions from a

diesel vehicle and to examine any differences between the pass/fail

determination based on steady—state tests and the pass/fail determination

based on transient—type tests.       With the certification test procedures

changing to transient—type testing, for heavy—duty vehicles, the tests

used to evaluate aftermarket parts, for heavy—duty vehicles, may need to

be changed also.    With permission from the ATS representative, these

additional tests were performed with the following results shown in

Table 3.

oVvI.      DISCUSSION
           The steady—state test results indicate that emissions at some test

 points were slightly increased, however, the increases are only a few ppm

 which are well within the sensitivity limits of the instruments.        This

 demonstrates that the addition of the ATS 6.9L Turbocharger kit will not

 have an adverse effect on emissions from the 1983—1987 Ford heavy—duty

 diesel vehicles for which the exemption was requested.

          ATS has submitted all the required information and fulfilled the

 requirements for an exemption.

          The CVS—72 test results with particulates indicate that the ATS

 6.9L turbocharger system does not increase emissions significantly.        This

 is the same determination made based on the steady—state test results.

 The particulate emissions were decreased O.1 g/mi or 16% with the

 turbocharger system installation.      These test results confirm that the

 ATS 6.9L turbocharger system meets the criteria for an exemption.

                             —FINAL EXHAUST—       <
The best turbo response is going to be realized by using three inch exhaust
tubing without a muffler., The next best response will be realized by using
three inch exhaust tubing anrd a good low restriction muffler. The third best
response is obtained by using three inch exhaust tubing back to where the
2 1/2 inch exhaust was cut near the welded bracket and then using no muffler.
CAUTION: Excessive back pressure will result in excessive exhaust temperature.
A pyrometer is supplied in the kit. DO NOT éxceed 1150 degrees Fahrenheit.
This reeding is taken from the turbo feed and not the discharge side of the
turbo, We recommend that the final exhaust be done in one of the three ways‘
just mentioned.



                       ~INJECTION PUMP SETTING—
To realize the benefit from turbocharging your engine, the injection pump
maximum fuel delivery should be increased. This is done by removing the
timing cover on the passenger side of the injection pump and rotating the
engine in direction of engine rotation until the allen head leaf spring
adjusting screw is centered in the opening. Using a 5/32 allen wrench,
turn the allen head serew inward (clockwise) to increase pump output and
outward (counter—clockwise) to reduce injection bump cutput. The injection
pump putput will determine maximum exhaust temperature. We recommend an
increase of 1/4 of a turn.

a                                                                      . wWhen
reinstalling the injection pump timing cover, DO NOT over—tighten the small
retaining bolts, this will make the gasket leak.


                                 —DOES~ _
1. Keep air cleaner elemont clean, When the element becomes dirty, change it.
   A dirty air cleaner element will cause excessive exhaust temperature and
   excessive oil consumption.                 '
2. Change oil at intervals of not more than 2 ,500 miles, Change oil filter
   element with every oil change.

3. When shutting down engine, make sure that exhaust temperature is below
   350 degrees Fahrenheit.

4. Keep fuel filter element clean. Drain water from fuel regularly. Clean
    diesel fuel will assure long trouble free injecetion pump and injector
    life.
5. When starting your engine, DO NOT rev your engine until ofl pressure is
   showing on your gauge.
    If these cautions are followed, long trouble free miles will be experienced
    with your turbocharged engine,.

    Test Program for Add—On Turbocharger Kits for Heavy—Duty Engines

    Testin        will consist of back—ta—back chassis dynamometer tests. Baseline
    {unmodiffed configuration} emission results will be compared to
    turbocharged (modified configuration} emission results on the same
    vehicle.

    A.       STEADY STATE TESTS

             1)     Idle

             2) 20, 30, 40, 50 and 55 mph at IXRL.
             Prior to measuring exhaust emission at any steady state test point,
             the vehicle‘s engine temperature shall be stabijlized. This is
             satisfied when engine ol temperature is stabilized as monitored
             and indicated by a temperature recorder.

             If a steady state point is unattainable in the baseline
             configuration, then the last point at a specified horsepower should
             be WOT and the speed should be recorded.    The test in the
             turbocharged configuration will be performed at the same speeds and
             horsepower as the baseline configuration.

             Any steady state may be deleted if 1) the steady state exceeds or
             can be expected to exceed the engine redline or 2) steady state
             conditions might cause serjous damage to vehicle components or
             dynamonmter, or create a hazard for test personnel.

             STEADY STATE DATA REQUIREMENTS

             1)    CO concentration

          2)       CO3 concentration

         3)        HC concentration (by HFID)

         4)        NOx concentration

         5)        engine rpm

         6)        engine oil temperature

         MISCELLANEQUS

          1)       The same fuel will be used for both the unmodified and modified
                   configurations unless the turbocharger manufacturer‘s written
                   instructions specify a different fuel for the turbocharged
                   configuration. +


                        i/g715 L/O/?Z/\
2)   Tire pressure in the drive wheels will be the maximum indicated
     on the tire sidewall.

3}   Test vehicles from secondary manufacturers may be tested
     without a body shell if 1) the cab is intact, 2) the vehicle is
     legally driveable on the street, 3) the frontal area is
     identical to the built—up vehicle, 4) the chassis is loaded to
     a weight simulating loaded vehicle weight. Loaded vehicle
     weight is defined as the manufacturer‘s estimated weight of the
     vehicle in operational status with all standard equipment, the
     weight fuel at nominal tank capacity, and the weight of
     optional equipment.
