This Executive Order is granted based on previously submitted emission test data and emission
test data generated on a 2006 model year 4.6L Ford Mustang certified to the Low Emission
Vehicle II Low Emission Vehicle (LEV II LEV) emission standards, and a 2006 model year 5.3L.
Chevrolet €1500 truck certified to the Low Emission Vehicle I Super Uftra Low Emission Vehicle
(LEV I SULEV) emission standards. Test results on the Mustang and Chevrolet C1500 truck
showed emission levels, with the supercharger and intercooler installed, met the applicable
emission standards when tested using the Cold—Start CVS—75 Federal Test Procedure, and the
Supplemental Federal Test Procedure (USO6/SCO03) test cycles. Examination of the OBD !I
system showed the Supercharger System does not affect the proper function of the OBD 11 ~
system. Results from emission testing conducted at Quantum Technologies, located at Lake
Forest, California, are shown below, in grams per mile, with deterioration factors (df) applied to
Cold—Start CVS—75 Federal Test Procedure modified test results.
