Rancho Santa Fe Road, San Marcos, California 92069 has been found not to reduce the effectiveness of required motor vehicle pollution control devices and, therefore, is exempt from the prohibitions of Section 27156 of the California Vehicle Code for installation on 2006 and older model—year vehicles equipped with spark ignited engines. Changes to the factory emission control systems are limited to replacing the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) spark plug wires with Nology Engineering, Inc.‘s HotWires. This Executive Order shall not apply to any Nology Engineering, Inc. HotWires advertised, offered for sale, sold with, or installed on a new motor vehicle prior to or concurrent with transfer to an ultimate purchaser. This Executive Order is valid provided that the installation instructions for the HotWires will not recommend tuning the vehicle to specifications different from those submitted by the device manufacturer. Changes made to the design or operating conditions of the device, as exempted by the Air Resources Board, that 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 this device may have on any warranty either expressed or implied by the vehicle manufacturer.

2. This exemption is issued based on information submitted by the manufacturer, which showed that the HotfWires meet the requirements of compliance criteria for ignition system components as specified under the "Procedures for Exemption of Add—On and Modified Parts" and therefore, will not increase emissions. This Executive Order is also based on previous On—Board Diagnostic I! (OBD II) testing.
