— (raye L iL 4) State of California AIR RESOURCES BOARD EXECUTIVE ORDER D—187—5 Relating to Exemptions Under Section 27156 of the Vehicle Code SLP ENGINEERING, INC. FLOWBOOSTER 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 Sections 39515 and 39516 of the Health and Safety Code and Executive Order G—45—9; IT IS ORDERED AND RESOLVED: That the installation of the Flowbooster, P/N 22100, manufactured by SLP Engineering, Inc. of 1501 Industrial Way North, Toms River, New Jersey 08755, 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 all 1985—97 General Motors vehicles equipped with the 5.0/5.7 liter TPI gasoline engine. The Flowbooster is an air—foil that is designed to mount in front of the throttle body‘s air inlet. This Executive Order is valid provided that installation instructions for this kit will not recommend tuning the vehicles to specifications different from those submitted by SLP Engineering, Inc. Changes made to the design or operating conditions of the devices, as exempt by the Air Resources Board, which adversely affect the performance of a vehicle‘s pollution control system shall invalidate this Executive Order. Marketing of this device using any identification other than that shown in this Executive Order or marketing of this device for an application other than those listed in this Executive Order shall be prohibited unless prior approval is obtained from the Air Resources Board. This Executive Order does not constitute any opinion as to the effect the use of the device may have on any warranty either expressed or implied by the vehicles manufacturer. This Executive Order is granted based on an engineering evaluation of the emission impact of the device if tested using the Cold—Start CVS—75 Federal Test Procedure. However, the ARB finds that reasonable grounds exist to believe that use of the Flowbooster may adversely affect emissions of motor vehicles when operating under conditions outside the parameters of the previously prescribed test procedures. Accordingly, the ARB reserves the right to conduct additional emission tests, in the future, as such tests are developed, that will more adequately measure emissions from all cycle phases. If such test results demonstrate that the Flowbooster adversely affect emissions during off—cycle conditions (defined as those conditions which are beyond the parameters of the Cold—Start CVS—75 Federal Test Procedure), this Executive Order shall be effectively rescinded as of the date the test results are validated. Further, if such test results or other evidence provides the ARB with reason to suspect that the Flowbooster will affect the durability of the emission control system, SLP shall be required to submit durability data to show that the durability of the vehicle emission control system is not, in fact, affected and/or that the add—on or modified part demonstrates adequate durability. 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. THIS EXECUTIVE ORDER DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A CERTIFICATION, ACCREDITATION, APPROVAL, OR ANY OTHER TYPE OF ENDORSEMENT BY THE AIR RESOURCES BOARD OF CLAIMS OF THE APPLICANT CONCERNING ANTI—POLLUTION BENEFITS OR ANY ALLEGED BENEFITS OF SLP ENGINEERING, INC.‘S FLOWBOOSTER.
