Kit Part Number              Vehicle Application

15168                2005—2010 model year 4.6 liter Ford Mustang w/ manual
                     transmission

                     transmission

The Turbonetics Turbo System consists of a Turbonetics turbocharger assembly rated
at a maximum boost of 8.0 pounds per square inch. The kit also includes an open
element air filter (4.0 liter Ford Mustangs only), replacement fuel injectors, exhaust
tubing, intake tubing, intercooler, a fue! pump voltage booster, and a Diablo ECU
reprogrammer with no user adjustments or download capabilities. The programmer
plugs into the On—Board Diagnostic (OBD) II port under the dash.

This Executive Order is granted based on previously submitted emissions test data from
a 2007 model year (MY) 4.0 liter Ford Mustang (test group 7FMXVO4.0VBR) certified to
the Low Emission Vehicle I1 Ultra Low Emission Vehicle (LEV II ULEV) emission
standards. Test results on the Ford Mustang showed that emission levels, with
Turbonetics, Inc.‘s Turbonetics Turbo System installed, met the applicable emission
standards when tested using the Cold Start Federal Test Procedure and Supplemental
Federal Test Procedure USO6 test cycle. Examination of the OBD II system showed
that the Turbonetics Turbo System did not affect OBD II system operation.
