                                   SUMMARY



       Paxton Products, Inc. (Paxton) of 929 Olympic Blvd., Santa Monica,

California 90404, has applied for an exemption from the prohibitions of Vehicle

Code Section 27156 for their add—on supercharger kit model number SN—89, part

number 10018.   The supercharger kit is intended for installation on 1986—1990

mode1-year Ford Mustangs powered by a 302 CID (5.0L) engine.

       Paxton has submitted data from comparative emission tests conducted on a

1989 Ford Mustang powered by a 302 CID engine at Automated Custom Systems, Inc.

Confirmatory tests were conducted on the same vehicle at the Air Resources

Board‘s (ARB‘s) Haagen—Smit Laboratory.

       Based on the results from the comparative emission tests performed by

Automated Custom Systems, Inc. and by the ARB, the staff concludes that

Paxton‘s add—on supercharger kit will not adversely affect exhaust emissions

from vehicles for which exemption is requested.

       The staff recommends that Paxton be granted an exemption for their add—

on supercharger kit model number SN—89, part number 10018, for installation on

1986—1990 model—year Ford Mustangs powered by a 302 CID engine, and that

Executive Order D—195—2 be issued.

EVALUATION OF PAXTON PRODUCTS, INC‘S ADD—ON SUPERCHARGER KIT MODEL NO. SN—89,
PART NO. 10018 FOR EXEMPTION FROM THE PROHIBITIONS IN VEHICLE CODE SECTION
27156 IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTIONS 2222, TITLE 13, OF THE CALIFORNIA CODE OFf
REGULATIONS

I. INTROBUCTION
      Paxton Products, Inc. (Paxton), of 929 Olympic Blvd., Santa Monica,

California 90404, has applied for an exemption from the prohibitions of

Vehicle Code Section 27156 for theif add—on supercharger kit model number SN—

89, part number 10018.   The supercharger kit is ifitended for installation on

1986—1990 Ford Mustangs powered by a 302 CID engine.

      Paxton has submitted data from comparative stock baseline versus

supercharged emission tests conducted on a 1989 Ford Mustang powered by a 302

CID engine at Automated Custom Systems, Inc. of Orange, California.

Confirmatory tests were conducted on the same vehicle at the ARB‘s Haagen—Smit

Laboratory in El Monte, California.

I1. CONCLUSION
      Based on the results from the comparative emission tests performed by

Automated Custom Systems, Inc. and from the conf}rmatory tests performed by

the ARB on the 1989 Ford Mustang, the staff concludes that Paxton‘s add—on

supercharger kit will not adversely affect exhaust emissions from vehicles for

which the exemption is requested.

III. RECOMMENDATIONS

      The staff recommends that Paxton be granted an exemption for their add—

on supercharger kit model number SN—89, part number 10018 for installation on

1986—1990 Ford Mustangs powered by a 302 CID engine.   The staff also

recommends that Executive Order D—195—2 be issued.


VI. DISCUSSION
      The results of the exhaust emission tests submitted by Paxton show a

decrease in emissions of Carbon Monoxide (CO) and Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) and an

increase of Hydrocarbon (HC), due to the installation of the supercharger kit.

The confirmatory testing conducted by the ARB yielded less increase in HC and

more decrease in CO and NOx.   However, the increase in HC is within the 10%

maximum which is allowed by Vehicle Code Section 27156 exemption criteria.

The tests have shown the Paxton supercharger model number SN—89, part number

10018, not to reduce the effectiveness of the emissions control systems of the

vehicle.

      Paxton has fulfilled the requirements for the exémption and, therefore,

Executive Order D—195—2 should be issued.
