cartridge that is instailed in the original air filter housing.

This Executive Order is valid provided that the installation instructions for the True Flow Air
Intake System will not recommend tuning the vehicle to specifications different from those
submitted by the device manufacturer.

This Executive Order shall not apply to any True Flow Air Intake System advertised, offered for
sale, sold with, or instailed on a new motor vehicle prior to or concurrent with transfer to an

 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 or marketing of the True Flow Air Intake System for an application other

from the Air Resources Board.

Air Intake System may have on any warranty either expressed or implied by the vehicle
manufacturer.                          .


                                                —2.

True Flow Air Intake System will have no adverse effect on emissions if tested according to the
Cold—Start CVS—75 Federal Test Procedure or the Supplemental Federal Test Procedure. The
evaluation also determined that the installation of this product would not affect the vehicle‘s _
ability to perform its On—Board Diagnostic II monitoring.

respect to the action taken herein in any advertising or other oral or written communication.

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
