LOS ANGELES, Jan. 11 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Save the World Air,
Inc. (Pink Sheets: ZERO) announced that recent certified tests of
its ZEFS device on a used 4-stroke motorcycle were better than EURO
II Standards by significant amounts. The tests were conducted in
December 2005 at the Automotive Emission Laboratory, Pollution
Control Department, Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment
of Thailand, and were performed jointly with S.P. Suzuki of
Thailand, the authorized distributor of Suzuki products in
Thailand. These certified test results were better than EURO II
standards in all three of the harmful exhaust emissions by
significant amounts as shown below: THC NOx CO EURO II Standard
1.20 g/km .30 g/km 5.50 g/km With ZEFS Device .52 g/km .10 g/km
1.42 g/km % Below EURO II 56% 65% 74% In addition, during the
testing, horsepower increased at all ranges, peaking at 18.8% at 50
km/h. Even more significant was the calculation by the laboratory
that fuel economy increased 33% over the baseline tests. "These
results are very exciting for our company," remarked Eugene
Eichler, CEO of SWA. "To exceed EURO II emissions standards without
replacing the carburetor with costly fuel injection or adding an
expensive catalytic converter in the exhaust pipe, is a significant
achievement. Our ZEFS device continues to demonstrate in testing
that it is a low-cost, easy-to-install alternative to address the
world's emission control problems, while also delivering
significant fuel savings and performance enhancement to
motorcycles." In other developments, Bruce McKinnon, President of
SWA, announced that the company has initiated production for 1,000
ZEFS devices which will be shipped to the Honda motorcycle
distributor for North Sumatra, Indonesia. These devices are the
first shipment of the 10,000-device test program, which was
announced in March 2005 by SWA and Lake Toba Summit Chairman, Nico
Barito, with the endorsement of HRH Sri Sultan Hamengkubowono X of
Yogyakarta and the late Governor of North Sumatra, Razil Nurdin.
The program is expected to commence in March 2006. Save the World
Air, Inc. is currently engaged in the product development, and
initial sales and marketing, of devices using proprietary
technologies that can be installed on motor vehicles, motorcycles
and stationary engines to reduce harmful emissions, improve fuel
efficiency and/or improve performance. Safe Harbor Statement The
