This Executive Order is granted based on emission test data generated on two test vehicles
modified with the Supercharger System. Test results showed that emission levels, with the
supercharger kit installed, met the applicable emission standards when tested using the
Cold—Start CVS—75 Federal Test Procedure (FTP) test cycle and the Supplemental Federal Test
Procedure (SFTP) test cycle. Examination of the OBD II system showed that the supercharger
kit did not affect OBD II system operation. 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.                       .
