This Executive Order does not constitute any opinion as to the effect that the use of these devices may have on any warranty either expressed or implied by the vehicle manufacturer. This exemption is issued based on previously submitted emissions test data (see Executive Order D—488—6) from an independent laboratory on a 2004 model year General Motors Corvette 206 vehicle (Test Group 4GMXVO05.7082) certified to the Low Emission Vehicle (LEV) and Supplemental Federal Test Procedure (SFTP) standards.

This Executive Order is also based on the On—Board Diagnostic l1 (OBD 11) testing conducted on the same test vehicle.
