This exemption shall not apply to any device, apparatus, or mechanism advertised, offered for sale or sold with, or installed on, a motor vehicle prior to or concurrent with transfer to an ultimate purchaser.

This Executive Order is valid provided that installation instructions for this turbocharger kit will not recommend tuning the vehicle to specifications different from those submitted by the device manufacturer. Changes made to the design or operating conditions of the turbocharger kit as exempted by the Air Resources Board, that adversely affect the performance of a vehicle‘s pollution control system shall invalidate this Executive Order. Marketing of the turbocharger kit using identification other than that shown in this Executive Order or marketing of the turbocharger kit for an application other than those listed in the exemption application, and on this Executive Order, shall be prohibited unless prior approval is obtained from the Air Resources Board. Exemption of the turbocharger kit shall not be construed as exemption to sell, offer for sale, or advertise any component of the turbocharger kit as an individual device. This Executive Order does not constitute any opinion as to the effect the use of the turbocharger kit 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 THE ADVANCED TURBO SYSTEMS, INC.‘S TURBOCHARGER KIT MODEL 7.3L SHOWN ABOVE.
