The Nissan/Infiniti Supercharger Kit includes the following main parts: Vortech centrifugal

by—pass valve, air intake tubing, open element air cleaner, PCV/fuel/vapor hoses, timing
control box, and an inline fuel pump. The stock mass airflow sensor and radiator thermostat

This Executive Order is valid provided that the installation instructions for the Nissan/Infiniti
Supercharger Kit will not recommend tuning the vehicle to specifications different from those
submitted by the device manufacturer.


                                                 «2—


Changes made to the design or operating conditions of the Nissan/Infiniti Supercharger Kit, 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 Nissan/infiniti Supercharger Kit 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 Nissan/Infiniti Supercharger Kit using any identification other than that shown in
this Executive Order or marketing of the Nissan/infiniti Supercharger Kit 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
Nissan/Infiniti Supercharger Kit may have on any warranty either expressed or implied by the
vehicle manufacturer.

This Executive Order is granted based on emission test results in the modified configuration
using the Cold—Start CVS—75 Federal Test Procedure, Supplemental Federal Test Procedure
(USO6/SC03), and an examination of the On—Board Diagnostic I! (OBD II) system. A 2005
Infiniti G35 with a 3.5 liter engine (5NSXVO3.5G7A, LEV II LEV, PC) was used for the evaluation
of the Nissan/Infiniti Supercharger Kit. Results from emissions testing conducted at Quantum
Technologies, Lake Forest, California, are shown below (in grams per mile with deterioration
factors applied):

                          CVS—75                             USO6/SCO3
                   NMOG CO     NOx        HCHO            NMHC+NOx     CO
Standards 50k      0.075 3.4   0.05       0.015           0.14/0.20    8.0/2.7
Device             0.063 0.8   0.02       0.001           0.07/0.01    4.0/0.4

 The emission test results in the modified configuration were below the applicable certification
standards. Examination of the OBD I! system showed the Nissan/Infiniti Supercharger Kit does
not affect OBD II system operation.

The Air Resources Board reserves the right in the future to review this Executive Order and the
exemption provided herein to assure that the exempted add—on or modified part continues to
meet the standards and procedures of Title 13, California Code of Regulations, Section 2222, et
seq.

THIS EXECUTIVE ORDER DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A CERTIFICATION, ACCREDITATION,
APPROVAL, OR ANY OTHER TYPE OF— ENDORSEMENT BY THE AIR RESOURCES BOARD
OF ANY CLAIMS OF THE APPLICANT CONCERNING ANTI—POLLUTION BENEFITS OR ANY
ALLEGED BENEFITS OF THE NISSAN/INFINIT! SUPERCHARGER KIT.                                             =

No claim of any kind, such as "Approved by the Air Resources Board", may be made with
respect to the action taken herein in any advertising or other oral or written communication.


                                                  —3—


Violation of any of the above conditions shall be grounds for revocation of this order. The order
may be revoked only after a ten—day written notice of intention to revoke the order, in which
period the holder of the order may request in writing a hearing to contest the proposed
revocation. If a hearing is requested, it shall be held within ten days of receipt of the request
and the order may not be revoked until a determination is made after the hearing that grounds
for revocation exist.
