                     Jackson Racing Acura RSX Type "S" Supercharger Kit

Pursuant to the authority vested in the Air Resources Board by Section 27156 of the Vehicle
Code; and

Pursuant to the authority vested in the undersigned by Section 39515 and Section 39516 of the
Health and Safety Code and Executive Order G—02—003;

IT IS ORDERED AND RESOLVED: That the installation of the Jackson Racing Acura RSX
Type "S" Supercharger Kit, part numbers 989—550 and 989—570, marketed and manufactured
by Moss Motors, 5760 Thornwood Drive, Goleta, California 93117 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 2002 through 2006
model year Acura RSX Type "S" vehicles.

The Jackson Racing Acura RSX Type "S" Supercharger Kit includes an Eaton supercharger
with a by—pass valve, add—on digital fuel management module to increase fuel flow during boost
conditions, replacement PCV hose manufactured to the SAE3ORY specs, and an intake
manifold. All components instailed on the original intake manifold are transferred to the new
intake manifold including the throttle body and EGR valve. Except for the PCV hose, no hoses
or fuel lines are modified or replaced during the installation. Stock crankshaft pulley is retained.
The supercharger is designed to give a maximum boost of 5 psi. by using a 4—inch pulley for
2002 to 2004 model year vehicles and 3.8—inch pulley for 2005 and 2006 model year vehicles.

This Executive Order is valid provided that the installation instructions for the Jackson Racing
Acura RSX Type "S" Supercharger Kit will not recommend tuning the vehicle to specifications
different from those of Moss Motors.

This Executive Order shall not apply to any Jackson Racing Acura RSX Type "S" Supercharger
Kit advertised, offered for sale, sold with, or installed on a vehicle prior to or concurrent with
transfer to an ultimate purchaser.

Changes made to the design or operating conditions of the Jackson Racing Acura RSX Type
"S" Supercharger Kit, as exempt by the Air Resources Board, which adversely affect the
performance of the vehicle‘s pollution control system shall invalidate this Executive Order.

Marketing of the Jackson Racing Acura RSX Type "S" Supercharger Kit using any identification
other than that shown in this Executive Order or marketing of the Jackson Racing Acura RSX
Type "S" Supercharger Kit for an application other than those listed in this Executive Order shall
be prohibited unless prior approval is obtained from the Air Resources Board. Exemption of the
Jackson Racing Acura RSX Type "S" Supercharger Kit shall not be construed as exemption to
sell, offer for sale, or advertise any component of the kit as an individual device.


                                              «2.

This Executive Order does not constitute any opinion as to the effect the use of the Jackson
Racing Acura RSX Type "S" Supercharger Kit may have on any warranty either expressed or
implied by Moss Motors.

This Executive Order is granted based on previously submitted emission test data, for Jackson
Racing (D—344—11), on a 2002 model year Acura RSX certified to the Low Emission Vehicle II
Low Emission Vehicle (LEV II LEV) emission standards. The emission test results in the
modified configuration were below the applicable certification standards. Examination of the
OBD II system showed no affect on the vehicle‘s OBD 11 system operation. The same impact
on emissions and OBD II system is expected on the requested vehicles.

in addition to the foregoing, the Air Resources Board reserves the right in the future to review
this Executive Order and the exemption provided herein 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 A CERTIFICATION, ACCREDITATION,
APPROVAL, OR ANY OTHER TYPE OF ENDORSEMENT BY THE AIR RESOURCES
BOARD OF ANY CLAIMS OF THE APPLICANT CONCERNING ANTI—POLLUTION BENEFITS
OR ANY ALLEGED BENEFITS OF MOSS MOTORS‘ JACKSON RACING ACURA RSX TYPE
"S" SUPERCHARGER KIT.

No claim of any kind, such as "Approved by the Air Resources Board", may be made with
respect to the action taken herein in any advertising or other oral or written communication.

Violation of any of the above conditions shall be grounds for revocation of this order. The order
may be revoked only after a 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 is made after the hearing that grounds
for revocation exist.

Executed at El Monte, California, this    é z ‘Mday of January 2007.
