(Page 1 of 2) State of California AIR RESOURCES BOARD EXECUTIVE ORDER D—267 Relating to Exemptions Under Section 27156 of the Vehicle Code KID CYCLONE DEVICE Pursuant to the authority vested in the Air Resources Bcard 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—5; IT IS ORDERED AND RESOLVED: That the installation of the Cyclone device, manufactured by KID, of 21308 Pathfinder #£208, Diamond Zar, California, 91765, 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 izstallation on the vehicles listed in Exhibit A which is attached hereto ard incorporated herein. This Executive Order is valid provided that installatics: instructions for this Cyclone device will not recommend tuning the vehicle to specifications different from those submitted by KID. Changes made to the design or operating conditions of the Cyclone device, as exempt by the Air Resources Board (ARB), which adversely affect the performance of a vehicle‘s pollution control system shall invalidate this Executive Order. Marketing of this Cyclone device, using an identificatisn other than that shown in this Executive Order or marketing of this Cycione device, for an application other than those listed in this Executive Order shall be prohibited unless prior approval is obtained from the 228. In addition to the foregoing, the ARB reserves the righ: in the future to reviey this Executive Order and the exemption provided Serein 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 any opinion as to the effect the use of this Cyclone device, may have on any warranty either expressed or implied by the vehicle manufacturer. THIS EXECUTIVE ORDER DOES.NOT CONSTITUTE A CERTIFICATION, ACCREDITATION, APPROVAL, OR ANY OTHER TYPE OF ENDORSEMENT BY THE AIR RZSOURCES BOARD OF CLAIMS OF THE APPLICANT CONCERNING ANTI—POLLUTION BENEFZITS OR ANY ALLEGED BENEFITS OF KID CYCLONE DEVICE. No claim of any kind, such as "Approved by the Air Rescsurces Board" may be made with respect to the action taken herein in any advertising or other cral or written communication.

KID EXECUTIVE ORDER D—267 CYCLONE DEVICE (Page 2 of 2) Violation of any of the above conditions shall be grounds for revocation of this order. The order may be revoked only after ten day written notice of intention to revoke the order, in which period the holder of the order may request in writing a hearing to contest the proposed revocation. If a hearing is requested, it shall be held within ten days of receipt of the request and the order may not be revoked until a determination after the hearing that grounds for revocation exist.

State of California AIR RESOURCES BOARD EVALUATION OF KID‘S CYCLONE DEVICE FOR EXEMPTION FROM THE PROHIBITIONS OF VEHICLE CODE SECTION 27156 IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 2222, TITLE 13, OF ’ THE CALIFORNIA CODE OF REGULATIONS August 1992

State of California AIR RESOURCES BOARD EVALUATION OF KID‘S CYCLONE DEVICE FOR EXEMPTION FROM THE PROHIBITIONS OF VEHICLE CODE SECTION 27156 IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 2222, TITLE 13, OF THE CALIFORNIA CODE OF REGULATIONS by Mobile Source Division State of California Air Resources Board 9528 Telstar Avenue EL Monte, CA 91731—2990 (This report has been reviewed by the staff of the California Air Resources Board and approved for publication. Approval does not signify that the contents necessarily reflect the views and policies of the Air Resources Board, nor does mention of trade names or commercial products constitute endorsement or recommendation for use.)

SUMMARY KID, of 21308 Pathfinder #208, Diamond Bar, California, 91765, has applied for an exemption from the prohibitions in Section 27156 of the California Vehicle Code (VC) for their Cyclone device. The Cyclone device is designed for installation on vehicles as listed in Appendix A. KID has submitted a completed application and all required information including samples of the individual models. Based on an engineering evaluation, it was determined that the Cyclone device would not have any significant adverse effects in emissions if tested in accordance with the Cold—Start CVS—75 Federal Test Procedure. The staff recommends that KID be granted exemption as requested and that Executive Order D—267 be issued for the Cyclone device.

EVALUATION OF KID‘S CYCLONE DEVICE FOR EXEMPTION FROM THE PROHIBITIONS OF VEHICLE CODE SECTION 27156 IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 2222, TITLE 13, OF THE CALIFORNIA CODE OF REGULATIONS I. INTRODUCTION KID, of 21308 Pathfinder #208, Diamond Bar, California, 91765 has applied for an exemption from the prohibitions in Section 27156 of the California Vehicle Code (VC) for their Cyclone device. The Cyclone device is designed for installation on the vehicles listed in Appendix A. KID has submitted a complete application and all the required information including samples of the individual models. II. CONCLUSIONS Based on an engineering evaluation of the device, the staff concludes installation of the KID Cyclone device will not adversely affect exhaust emissions from vehicles for which an exemption is requested. III. RECOMMENDATION The staff recommends that KID be granted an exemption as requested and that Executive Order D—267 be issued for the Cyclone device. IV. DEVICE DESCRIPTION The Cyclone device is a vehicle—specific component used to increase turbulence in the air intake passage. It is cylindrical in shape with six (6) blades connecting at the cylinder‘s center (see drawing in Appendix B). It is constructed using copper sheet, cut to shape, and tack welded together. The device is inserted into the air intake passage between the air filter and the throttle body, upstream of the air metering device. No sensors are relocated or altered by the device‘s installation. The tension of the device‘s outer surface holds the device in place.

v. CYCLONE DEVICE EVALUATION AND DISCUSSION An engineering evaluation was conducted to evaluate the impact of the Cyclone device on emissions. The manufacturer claims the Cyclone device creates turbulence in the intake air. In the staff‘s evaluation, the device is located relatively far upstream from the air flow metering device, therefore, the induced turbulence will not affect the air flow measurement. The manufacturer supplied CVS—75 FTP test results conducted at the Automobile Club of Southern California using a 1991 Ford Taurus tested with and without the device. The results are as follows: Test HC am/mi co am/mi Kox am/mi Baseline #1 0.324 3.437 0.206 Baseline #2 0.302 3.201 0.202 With Device 0.309 3. 224 0.204 These test results support staff‘s opinion that turbulence induced in the intake tract have no significant effect on the emissions. Based on engineering evaluation of the supplied information, staff determined the Cyclone device will not increase emissions.
