FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Superchips Receives CARB/EPA Certification for Gasoline-Powered Ford, Dodge, Chrysler and Jeep Vehicles

Sanford, FL — Superchips announces that it has received certification from the California Air Resources Board (CARB) for a wide range of Ford, Jeep, Dodge and Chrysler gasoline-powered vehicles. The receipt of CARB Executive Orders means the products comply with CARB standards to be 50-state emissions legal. The Federal Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recognizes California emissions certifications as reasonable basis for compliance in all other states, thus increasing the value of CARB approval for consumers using certified Superchips products nationwide.

“We’re excited to receive this product certification,�?? said Tom Bennett, President of Superchips. “These achievements represent our commitment to building quality products that are in compliance with established emissions standards. In particular, we are proud of our product development teams that created products which not only meet strict emissions requirements but also offer significant vehicle performance benefits to our customers.�??

Vehicle manufacturers build automobiles meeting CARB/EPA emission certification levels. To remain emissions compliant after installing aftermarket products, CARB requires aftermarket manufacturers to test to see how they affect emissions. They check the emission levels (byproducts of combustion) for things such as total hydrocarbons (THC), carbon monoxide (CO), oxides of nitrogen (NOx), carbon dioxide (CO2) and non-methane hydrocarbons (NM-HC). Products earning Executive Orders demonstrate that they meet emissions levels.

Where required, Superchips has submitted all of their products for testing and is working diligently toward full product line compliance. Superchips expects to complete the certification process for all of their gasoline engine related products in the 2009 calendar year making them 50-state emissions legal.

Superchips manufactures a full line of handheld programmers for popular late-model trucks, cars, SUVs and Jeeps. All Superchips products are available for purchase in retail stores and online.
