Default For all turbo guys

I have been looking at all the turbo kits for our cars and not one of them is legal or C.A.R.B. approved. So how do you get it to pass the smog test when the time comes? Thanks -Andrew

Hellions turbo kit is C.A.R.B EO pending. And powerhouse is working on a kit that will work with the stock cats I think. STS (twin or single)doesn't even interefere with the stock exhaustexcept for the mufflers.

Register your car in another state[8D]One of the good thing about registering my car in NM is NO EMMISSIONS or SAFETY INSP. Other than that is place is blah. At least eastern NM.

Well considering they dont use tail pipe sniffers around here they just plug into the ecu to check. With a set of MIL eliminators you will pass with flying colors.
