No person shall sell, offer for sale, advertise, or represent any motor vehicle pollution control device as a certified device which, in fact, is not a certified device. Any violation of this subdivision is a misdemeanor." Any apparent vio]ation'of the conditions of this Executive Order will be submitted to the Attorney General of California for such actior as he deems advisable.

SUMMARY — Gale Banks Engineering (Banks) has requested an update to Executive Order D—161—2, which exempts their turbocharger kit mode! No. 619F for 1983— 1987 model—ysar Ford Motor Company heavy~duty vehicles powered by a 6.9 liter Navistar International heavy—duty dissel engine. They have requested that a turbocharger unit manufactured by an additional source (Schwitzer/ Banks} be aiso exempted. Based on the following: (1) comparative compressor performance maps submitted by Banks indicating that the two turbochargers have similar operating characteristics; (2) the fact that both turbochargers have an A/R ratio of 1.0; and (3) test data from previous comparative exhaust emission tests performed for exempting the kit, the staff concludes that the Banks turbocharger kit mode! No. 6.9F using the Schwitzer/Banks_turbocharger wilI not adversely affect exhaust emissions from 1983~1987 model—year Ford Motor Company heévy—duty vehicles powered by a 6.9 liter Navistar international heavy~duty diesel engine.

EVALUATION OF GALE BANKS ENGINEERING‘S ADD—ON TURBOCHARGER KIT MODEL NO. G.9F FOR INSTALLATION IN FORD MOTOR COMPANY HEAVY—DUTY VEHICLES POWERED BY A G.9 LITER NAVISTAR INTERNATIONAL HEAVY—DUTY DIESEL ENGINE FOR EXEMPTION FROM THE PROHIBITIONS IN VEKICLE CODE SECTION 27156 IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 2222, TITLE 13, OF THE CALIFORNIA ADMINISTRATIVE CODE 1. INTRODUCT ION Gale Banks Engineering (Banks}.of 546 Duggan Avenue, Azusa, California 91702, has requested an update to the existing Air Resources Board Executive Order (E.0.) D—161—2 dated October 23, 1986. E.0. D—161—2 exempted thé Bank‘s turbocharger kit modei No. 6.9F from the prohibitions in Vehicle Code Section 27156 for 1983—1987 model—year Ford Motor Company heavy—duty vehicles powered by a 6.9 liter Navistar lnternationaiAheavy—duty diese! engine. The applicant has requested that a turbocharger unit (the major component of the kit) manufactured by an additional source (Schwitzer/Banks) be also exempted. This would give Banks the freedom to procfire turbocharger units from two‘sources when assembling the kits for sale. L1. NCL IVN Based on the following: (1) comparative compressor performance maps submitted by Banks indicating that the two turbochargers have similar operating characteristics; (2) the fact that both turbochargers have an A/R ratio of 1.0; and (3) test data from previous comparative exhaust emission tests performed for exempting the kit, the staff concludes that the Banks turbocharger kit mode! No. 6.9F using the Schwitzer/Banks turbocharger will not adversely affect exhaust emissions from 1983—1987 mode{—year Ford Motor Company heavy—duty vehicles powered by a 6.9 liter Navistar International heavy—duty diese! engine.

1IF. RECOMMENDATIONS — The staff recommends that Banks be granted an update as requested, and that Executive Order D—161—6 be issued. 1V. TURBOCHARGER KIT DESCRIPTION AND QPERATION The purposse of the Banks turbocharger kit is to increase the power output of the engine by Increasing its volumetric efficiency. This is accomplished by compressing the Iintake charge to pressures above that of the atmosphere. The increased pressure allows a greater charge density to enter the combust}on chamber providing more oxygen for combustion. The max imum fuel delivery is slightly increased in order to maintain proper air—fue! ratios with the increased air flow from the turbocharger when it is providing positive manifold pressure (boost). The major components of the kit include a 1.0 A/R ratio Rotomaster mode! No. TO48 or a Schwitzer/Banks Mode! No. TO4B25 turbocharger, custom Intake and exhaust tubing, air cleaner assembly, brackets, hoses and the hardware necessary to complete the installation. Maximum positive manifold pressure is limited to 7 psi by the size of the turbine and the compressor. The maximum engine spseed is regulated by the OEM fue! injection governor which is not modified by the installation of the kit. Therefore, by controlling maximum engine speed, méximum turbine speed and corresponding boost pressures are also controlled. No OEM emission controls are removed or disconnected when the turbocharger kit is installed. v. Di 1 Banks has submitted compressor performance maps of both Rotomaster Mode! No. TO4B and Schwitzer/Banks mode! No. TO4B25 turbochargers. Both

‘ turbochargers are designed to have an A/R ratio of 1.0 {critical parameter). The compressor maps Indicate that the two turbochargers have similar operating characteristics. A copy of the compressor maps is appended.
