I am posting this for the benefit of some of the really bright people who enjoy delving into control systems and are willing to share what they know with the rest of us dummies. Let me add that I really admire what the California Air Resources Board has accomplished and, like it or not, the world follows their design. So there is no point in grousing. At any rate, PEHV will be one of the easier aftermarket opportunities out there for tinkerers with dreams of going commercial - and the ARB, if you read carefully, will allow you TEN on-road prototypes for testing and evaluation, then another 90 to get it right. That works for me. - Ptero
