This Executive Order is granted based on emission test results in the modified
configuration using the Federal Test Procedure (FTP) and an examination of the On-
Board Diagnostic II (OBD II) system. A 2012 Toyota Tacoma with a 4.0 liter engine
(test group CTYXT04 .0BEM, LEV-II ULEV) was used for the evaluation of the Cold Air
Intake Systems. Results from emissions testing c;:onducted at Automotive Testing and
Development Services , Inc. of Ontario, California are shown below (in grams per mile) :

                    120,000 mi .
                 Emission Level       0.026          0.8           0.02         0.001
                   (OF applied)
                           STD        0.055          2.1           0.07         0.011

Emission test results in the modified configuration were below the applicable
certification standards . Examination of the OBD II system showed the Cold Air Intake
Systems do not affect OBD II operation. Therefore, based on the test results , the staff
concludes that the Cold Air Intake Systems meet the criteria for exempting general
criteria parts .

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 . Further, if test results or other evidence provides the ARB with reason to
suspect that Cold Air Intake Systems will affect the durability of emission control
systems , Spectre Performance shall be required to submit durability data to show that
the durability of vehicle emission control systems are not, in fact, affected and/or that
the add-on or modified part demonstrates adequate durability.

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 THE SPECTRE
PERFORMANCE COLD AIR INTAKE SYSTEMS.

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 .
