IT IS ORDERED AND RESOLVED: That the installation of the HotWires manufactured
and marketed by Nology Engineering, Inc. of 1945 S. 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 mstallatlon on 2011 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 bf 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.

This exemption is issued based on information submitted by the manufacturer, which
showed that the HotWires 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 II (OBD II) testing. Testing showed that the
HotWires when instalied on the vehicle did not affect the vehicle‘s ability to perform its
OBD II monitoring.
