Evaluation of Spearco Performance Products, Inc.‘s Turbocharger Intercooler Kit Nos. 99684 and 99685 for 1984—1986 Maserati Bi—Turbo Vehicles for Exemption from the Prohibitions in Vehicle Code Section 27156 in Accordance with Section 2222, Title 13, of the California Administrative Code. by Mobile Source Division State of California Air Resources Board 9528 Telstar Avenue El Monte, CA 91731 (This report has been reviewed by the staff of the California Air Resources Board and approved for publication. Approval does not signify that the contents necessarily reflect the views and policies of the Air Resources Board, nor does mention of trade names or commercial products constitute endorsement or recommendation for use.)

summary Spearco Performance Products, Inc., has requested that an air/air type intercooler kit (kit No. 99685) be also included in the exemption in addition to the previously exempted liquid/air type intercooler kit (kit No. 99684) for installation on 1984—1986 Maserati Bi—Turbo vehicles powered by a 2.5 liter engine. Based on the fact that: (1) Spearco has been granted an exemption for a liquid/air type intercooler kit for installation on the referenced vehicles; and (2) that the designed charge—side efficiency of the new air/air type intercooler is similar to that of the exempted liquid/air intercooler, the staff concludes that the air/air type intercooler kit being evaluated will not adversely affect emissions from vehicles for which exemption is requested. The staff recommends that Spearco be granted its request and that Executive Order D—140—17 be issued.

Evaluation of Spearco Performance Products, Inc.‘s Turbocharger Intercooler Kit Numbers 99684 and 99685 for 1984—1986 Maserati Bi—Turbo Vehicles for Exemption from the Prohibitions in Vehicle Code Section 27156 in Accordance with Section 2222, Title 13, of the California Administrative Code. I. INTRODUCTION Spearco Performance Products, Inc. (Spearco), of 7541 Woodman Place, Van Nuys, California 91405, has requested an update of its existing Air Resources Board‘s Executive Order (E.0.) No. D—140—13. The applicant requested that an air/air type intercooler kit (kit No. 99685) be aliso included in the exemption in addition to the previously exempted liquid/air type intercooler kit (kit No. 99684) for installation on 1984—1986 Maserati Bi—Turbo vehicles powered by a 2.5 liter engine. II. CONCLUSION Based on the fact that: (1) Spearco has been granted an exemption for a liquid/air type intercooler kit for instaliation on the referenced vehicles; and (2) that the designed charge—side efficiency of the new air/air type intercooler is similar to that of the exempted liquid/air intercooler, the staff concludes that the air/air type intercooler kit being evaluated will not adversely affect emissions from vehicles for which exemption is requested. I1I. RECOMMENDATIONS The staff recommends that Spearco be granted its request and that E.0. No. D—140—17 be issued. IV. DISCUSSION Spearco was issued an exemption for their liquid/air type intercooler kit, kit No. 99684, for installation on 1984—1986 Maserati Bi—Turbo vehicles powered by a 2.5 liter engine via E.0. No. D—140—13 on December 26, 1985.

Spearco has designed another intercooler kit (kit No. 99685), that uses an air/air type core block, for installation on the same vehicles as exempted under E.0. No D—140—13. Spearco requested that this newly designed intercooler kit be also exempted. The staff has compared the design criteria of the two intercoolers. The designed charge—side efficiency of the air/air intercooler is similar to that of the exempted liquid/air intercooler. Based on the above, the staff is of the opinion that Spearco intercooler kit No. 99685 will not adversely affect the exhaust emission on the 1984—1986 Maserati Bi—Turbo vehicles. No additional testing was required or performed to update this exemption.
