The High Flow Cold Air lntake System (Air Box Kit) includes a new air filter housing lid and a cotton gauze filter element. The stock air filter housing bottom (dirty air side) is cut open to attached tubing that captures cold air from the bottom of the vehicle. The stock air flow meter is transferred to the new air filter housing lid. The High Flow Cold Air lntake System (Tube Kit) consists of an aluminum tube which connects to the vehicle's stock air flow meter and to an open element type air filter located in a protected compartment. This Executive Order is valid provided that the installation instructions for the High Flow Cold Air lntake System will not recommend tuning the vehicle to specifications different from those of the vehicle manufacturer. Changes made to the design or operating conditions of the High Flow Cold Air lntake System, as exempt by the Air Resources Board, which adversely affect the performance of the vehicle's pollution control system shall invalidate this Executive Order. This Executive Order shall not apply to any High Flow Cold Air lntake System advertised, offered for sale, sold with, or installed on a new motor vehicle prior to or concurrent with transfer to an ultimate purchaser. Marketing of the High Flow Cold Air lntake System using any identification other than that shown in this Executive Order or marketing of the High Flow Cold Air lntake System for an application other than those listed in this Executive Order shall be prohibited unless prior approval is obtained from the Air Resources Board.

This Executive Order does not constitute any opinion as to the effect the use of the High Flow Cold Air lntake System units may have on any warranty either expressed or implied by the vehicle manufacturer.

Examination of the OBD II system showed the High Flow Cold Air lntake System did not affect OBD II system operation.
