Turbo kits, unless CARB approved, are completely illegal in the state of California (Unless the car is built before 1975).
Engine swaps have been the go-to option for that reason with Subaru's for years in this state, as long as the engine is the same year or newer.
The Vortech Supercharger kit is SUPPOSEDLY being CARB approved, but who knows if it will be or not...
