State of California AIR RESOURCES BOARD EXECUTIVE ORDER D—176—21 Relating to Exemptions Under Section 27156 Of the Vehicle Code Dinan Engineering, Inc. High Flow Cold Air Intake Pursuant to the authority vested in the Air Resources Board by Section 27156 of the Vehicle Code; and Pursuant to the authority vested in the undersigned by Section 39515 and Section 39516 of the Health and Safety Code and Executive Order G—02—003; IT IS ORDERED AND RESOLVED; That the installation of the High Flow Cold Air Intake, manufactured and marketed by Dinan Engineering, Inc., 865 Jarvis Drive, Morgan Hill, CA 95037, has been found not to reduce the effectiveness of the applicable vehicle pollution control system and, therefore, is exempt from the prohibitions of Section 27156 of the Vehicle Code for installation on 2000 through 2002 model year BMW vehicles as described in Exhibit A. The High Flow Cold Air Intake consists of a tube (either aluminum or carbon fiber) which connects the vehicle‘s air flow meter to an open element type air filter located in a protected compartment. This Executive Order is valid provided that the installation instructions for the High Flow Cold Air Intake will not recommend tuning the vehicle to specifications different from those of the vehicle manufacturer. This Executive Order shall not apply to any High Flow Cold Air Intake advertised, offered for sale, sold with, or installed on a motor vehicle prior to or concurrent with the transfer to an ultimate purchaser. Changes made to the design or operating conditions of the High Flow Cold Air Intake, as exempt by the Air Resources Board, which adversely affect the performance of the vehicle‘s pollution control system shall invalidate this Executive Order. Marketing of the High Flow Cold Air Intake using any identification other than that shown in this Executive Order or marketing of the High Flow Cold Air Intake for an application

other than those listed in this Executive Order shall be prohibited unless prior approval is obtained from the Air Resources Board. Exemption of the system shall not be construed as exemption to sell, offer for sale, or advertise any component of the kit as an individual device. This Executive Order does not constitute any opinion as to the effect the use of the High Flow Cold Air Intake may have on any warranty either expressed or implied by the vehicle manufacturer. This Executive Order is granted based on the following emissions test data from two 2002 model year BMW vehicles which were equipped with Dinan‘s High Flow Cold Air Intake, Performance Software and High Flow Throttle Body. The test vehicles were a 5301 certified to the Ultra Low Emission Vehicle standards and a 325i certified to the Low Emission Vehicle standards and subject to the Supplemental Federal Test Procedure test requirements. The test results, in grams per mile with the deterioration factors applied, showed that vehicle emissions did not exceed the exhaust emissions standards. 2002 BMW 530i |TEST NMOG CO NOx HCHO Standard ©.040 1.7 0.2 0.008 Modified 0.022 11 0.1 0.0003 2002 BMW 325i SFTP (USQG) NMHC+NOx co (grams/mile) Standard 0.14 8.0 Modified 0.05 34 Similar effect on vehicle emissions is expected with the installation of the High Flow Cold Air Intake on vehicles listed in this Executive Order. This Executive Orderis also based on the On—Board Diagnostic II (OBDII) testing conducted on the same test vehicles. Test data showed that these components, including the High Flow Cold Air Intake, when installed on the vehicles did not affect the vehicle‘s ability to perform its OBDII monitoring. 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 Title 13, California Code of Regulations, Section 2222, et seq.
