                  HAYAME PERFORMANCE COLD AIR INTAKE 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
39518 of the Health and Safety Code and Executive Order G—45—9;

IT IS ORDERED AND RESOLVED: That the installation of the Hayame Performance
Cold Air Intake Kit, manufactured and marketed by SPW Industries, 201 Bernoulli
Circle, Building D, Oxnard, California 93030, has been found not to reduce the
effectivenessofthe applicable vehicle pollution control system and, therefore, is exempt
from the prohibitions of Section 27156 of the Vehicle Code for the vehicles listed in —
Exhibit A. _                                   —                          ‘      '

The Hayame Performance Cold Air Intake Kit includes the following main components:
open—element reusable air filter, intake system tubing, silicone crankease ventilation
hose (as applicable), assorted brackets, and hardware.

This Executive Order is valid provided that the installation instructions for the Hayame
Performance Cold Air Intake Kit will not recommend tuning the vehicle to specifications
different from those of the vehicle manufacturer.

Changes'made to the design or operating conditions of the Hayamse Performance Cold
Air Intake 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.                                                                              >

Air Intake 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.

This Executive Order does not constitute any opinion as to the effect the use of the
Hayame Performance Cold Air Intake Kit may have on any warranty either expressed or.
implied by the vehicle manufacturer.

This Executive Order is granted based on an examination of the On—Board Diagnostic II
(OBD—I1) system of the vehicle in the modified configuration, and an engineering
evaluation of the emissions impact of the device if measured using the Coid—Start CVS—
 75 Federal Test Procedure. However, the ARB finds that reasonable grounds exist to
 believe that use of the SPW Industries Hayame Performance Cold Air Intake Kits may
 adversely affect emissions of motor vehicles when operating under conditions outside
 the parameters of the CVS—75 Federal Test Procedure. 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 SPW Industries Hayame Performance Cold Air Intake Kit
 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 suchtest resultsor other evidenceprovides the ARB with reason
 to suspect that the Hayame Performance Cold Air Intake Kit will affect the durability of
 emission control systems, SPW Industries shall be required to submit durability data to
 show that the durability of vehicle enission control systems are 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 OTHER CLAIMS OF THE APPLICANT
 CONCERNING ANTI—POLLUTION BENEFITS OR ANY ALLEGED BENEFITS OF SPW
 INDUSTRIES‘ HAYAME PERFORMANCE COLD AIR INTAKE 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.

1. INTRODUCTION
            SPW Industries of 201 Bernoulli Circle, Building D, Oxnard, California

93030, has applied for an exemption from the prohibitions in Section 27156 of

the California Vehicle Code (VC) for the Hayame Performance Cold Air Intake

Kit.

II. CONCLUSIONS
            Based on engineering evaluation and an examination of the On—Board

Diagnostic 11 (OBD—II) system with the Hayame Performance Cold Air Intake Kit

installed, the staff concludes that the SPW Industries Hayame Performance Cold

Air Intake Kit will not adversely affect exhaust emissions from the vehicles for

which the exemption is requested.

III. RECOMMENDATION

            The staff recommends that SPW Industries be granted an exemption

for their Hayame Performance Cold Air Intake Kit for installation on the vehicles

listed in Exhibit A. The staff also recommends that Executive Order D—513 be

issued.

IV. HAYAME PERFORMANCE COLD AIR INTAKE KIT DESCRIPTION

            SPW Industries offers various intake systems through its Hayame

Performance Cold Air Intake Kit product line. These intake systems have been

specifically designed for installation on the vehicles listed in Exhibit A. Each


system operates in conjunction with the original equipment manufacturer‘s (OEM)

computer controlled fuel injection system and emission control system already

certified with the stock engine, with the exception of the stock airbox, portions of

the stock intake tubing, and crankcase ventilation hose.

            The intent of installing the Hayame Performance Cold Air Intake Kit is

to increase the vehicle‘s volfimetric efficiency and power output at particular

engine loads and throttle openings. At heavy engine loads and increased throttle

openings, the airflow into the engine is increased because the Hayame

Performance Cold Air Intake Kit kits are less restrictive than stock air filters. This

allows more air to enter the engine, which is compensated by the vehicle engine

control module with an increase in fuel flow, resulting in a higher power output.

However, the fuel enrichment is limited and the typical net effect is an overall

leaning effect of the fuel mixture. The leaning effect is manifested in a marginal,

but measurable, NOx increaée. Worst—case vehicles are examined for their

certification emissions. In cases where certification emissions have values low

enough to accommodate any small increase in emissions (in this case NOx),

emission testing is deemed not required.

            The filter element used in the Hayame Performance Cold Air Intake Kit

is an open—element, reusable cotton gauze unit, designed to be less restrictive

than the stock air filter.

            The installation of the kit does not require any major modifications to

the stock motor, except for the modification of the factory air intake system to

                                          3.


accommodate the Hayame Performance Cold Air Intake Kit air filter and

plumbing. On some models, relocation of the crankcase ventilation hose is

required. In these cases, the Hayame Performance Cold Air Intake Kits are

supplied with silicone crankease ventilation hoses.                 |

V.         DISCUSSION OF THE HAYAME PERFORMANCE COLD AIR

INTAKE KIT                                                                 |
           No emissions measurement was required forthe evaluation of the

Hayame Performance Cold Air Intake Kit. Similar systems have been tested and

have shown to have only a slight influence on emissions, namely a marginél

increase in NOx due to a leaning effect of the less restrictive intake system. The.,

affected vehicles have certification values which are low enough to

accommodate any small increase in NOx emissions.

           A 2000 Honda Accord LX with a 2.3 liter four cylinder engine (engine:

family YHNXVO2.3PL4) was used for the evaluation .of the Hayame Performance

Cold Air Intake Kit. The test vehicle was certified to Passenger Car Ultra Low—

Emission Vehicle (PC UL_EV) standards and was equipped with an enhanced

evaporétive system. Testing consisted of one CVS-?S Federal Test Procedures

(FTP) in the modified configuration (Hayame Performance Cold Air Intake Kit

installed) to set allOn—Board Diagnostics (OBD) II readiness‘indicators, and was

conducted at California Analytical Instruments, Inc. The ARB did not perform

testing to confirm the test results submitted by the applicant.


yr95ths,




                      Based on engineering evaluation and the OBD—II test results, the staff

           concludes that the SPW Industries Hayame Performance Cold Air Intake Kit

           meets the requirements for VC 27156 exemption of general criteria paits.

           However, the ARB finds that reasonable grounds exist to believe that use of the

           SPW Industries Hayame Performance Cold Air Intake Kit may adversely affect

           emissions of motor vehicles when operating under conditions outside the

           parametérs of the previously prescribed test procedure. Accordingly, the ARB

           reserves the right to conduct additional test in the future, as suchtests are

           developéd.

                        SPW Industries has submitted all the required inforhation and fulfilled

           the requirements for an exemption.
