Modifications to the emissions control system include a relocation of the air injection hoses, retarding ignition timing from stock 10 degrees BTDC to 5 degrees BTDC, and the installation of a one way valve between the PCV valve and inlet manifold. This Executive Order is valid provided that the installation instructions for the 300, 375, & 450 HP Twin Turbo Systems will not recommend tuning the vehicle to specifications different from those submitted by Incon Systems, Inc.

Incon Systems, Inc. EXECUTIVE ORDER D—469 300, 375, & 450 HP Twin Turbo Systems (Page 2 of 3) Changes made to the design or operating conditions of the 300, 375, & 450 HP Twin Turbo Systems, 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 300, 375, & 450 HP Twin Turbo Systems using any identification other than that shown in this Executive Order or marketing of the 300, 375, & 450 HP Twin Turbo Systems 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 300, 375, & 450 HP Twin Turbo Systems shall not be construed as exemption to sell, offer for sale, or advertise any component of the kit as an individual device. This Executive Order does not constitute any opinion as to the effect the use ofthe 300, 375, & 450 HP Twin Turbo Systems may have on any warranty either expressed or implied by the vehicle manufacturer. This Executive Order is granted based on the following submitted emissions test data on a 1990 Ford Mustang with the 450 HP kit installed: . HC CO NOX Standards 0.41 3.4 1.0 W/ device 0.24 1.7 0.7 Test results showed that the 300, 375, & 450 HP Twin Turbo Systems when installed on the vehicle did not cause tailpipe emissions to exceed the vehicle‘s applicable emission standard during a Cold Start CVS— 75 Federal Test Procedure. However, the ARB finds that reasonable grounds exist to believe that use of the 300, 375, & 450 HP Twin Turbo Systems may adversely affect emissions of motor vehicles when operating under conditions outside the parameters of the previously prescribed test procedures. Accordingly, the ARB reserves the right to conduct additional emission tests, in the future, as such tests are developed, that will more adequately measure emissions from all cycle phases. If such test results demonstrate that the 300, 375, & 450 HP Twin Turbo Systems adversely affect emissions during off—cycle conditions (defined as those conditions which are beyond the parameters of the Cold—Start CVS—75 Federal Test Procedure), this Executive Order shall be effectively rescinded as of the date the test results are validated. Further, if such test results or other evidence provides the ARB with reason to suspect that the 300, 375, & 450 HP Twin Turbo Systems will affect the durability of the emission control system, Incon Systems, Inc. shall be required to submit durability data to show that the durability of the vehicle emission control system is not, in fact, affected and/or that the add—on or modified part demonstrates adequate durability. In addition to the foregoing, the ARB 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 INCON SYSTEMS, INC.‘S 300, 375, & 450 HP TWIN TURBO SYSTEMS.
