                           Relating to Exemptions Under Section 27156

                         ADVANCED ENGINE MANAGEMENT, INC.
                               AEM COLD AIR SYSTEM


Pursuant to the authority vested in the Air Resources Board (ARB) by Section 27156 of the Vehicle
Code; and

Pursuant to the authority vested in the undersigned by Sections 39515 and 39516 of the Health and
Safety Code and Executive Order G—45—9;

IT IS ORDERED AND RESOLVED: That installation of the AEM Cold Air System,
manufactured by Advanced Engine Management, Inc. of 200 Corporate Pointe, Suite 465, Culver
City, California 90230, has been found not to reduce the effectiveness of the applicable vehicle
pollution control system, and therefore, the AEM Cold Air System is exempt from the prohibitions
of Section 27156 of the Vehicle Code for installation on the following Honda Motor Co., Ltd.
Acura Integras:




         21—403          1996—98            Acura Integra                1.8 liter

         21—404          1996—98            Acura Integra                1.8 liter

                                            Type—R



This exemption is based on an engineering evaluation of the AEM Cold Air System. Based on
evaluation of the operating principles and the required modifications, it is concluded that the AEM
Cold Air System will not adversely affect the exhaust emissions of the vehicles for which the
exemption is requested.

AEM COLD AIR SYSTEM                                           (Page 2 of 3)


This Executive Order is valid provided that installation instructions for the AEM Cold Air System
not recommend tuning the vehicles to specifications different from those of the vehicle
manufacturer.

Changes made to the design or operating conditions of the AEM Cold Air System, as exempt by
the ARB, which adversely affect the performance of the vehicles‘ pollution control system, shall
invalidate this Executive Order.

Marketing of the AEM Cold Air System using identification other than that shown in this Executive
Order or for an application other than those listed in this Executive Order shall be prohibited unless
prior approval is obtained from the ARB.

This Executive Order is granted based on an engineering evaluation of the AEM Cold Air System.
ARB reserves the right to conduct emission tests in the future which will adequately measure
emissions from all cycle phases. If such test results demonstrate that the AEM Cold Air System
adversely affects emissions during off—cycle conditions (defined as those conditions which are
beyond the parameters of the Cold—Start CVS—75 Federal Test Procedure), this Executive Order
shall be effectively rescinded as of the date the test results are validated.

In addition to the foregoing, the ARB 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 California Code of Regulations, Title 13, Section 2222, et
seq.

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

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 ADVANCED ENGINE
MANAGEMENT, INC.‘S AEM COLD AIR SYSTEM.

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.

Violation of any of the above conditions shall be grounds for revocation of this Executive Order.
The Executive Order may be revoked only after a ten—day written notice of intention to revoke the
Executive Order, in which period the holder of the Executive 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 Executive Order may not be revoked until a determination
after the hearing that grounds for revocation exist.
