The one that immediately comes to mind was a florida resident with florida plates...

But getting away with not having smog checks done is not always the same as not ever being required to comply with california emissions. The law says you have to comply, they give you a break, but anytime they feel like it they could start asking for proof of compliance. Simply because the law already says you have to comply. Quote:

I think this is the part that ruined my friends days, but they're back outside of California now so they're happy. |

This thread has hella derailed. There are no carb turbo kits.
However, it's easier to join the military, then register your car in another state to avoid emissions testing. |

Reviving this thread - we now offer two CARB-compliant turbo kits:
WORKS FR-S/BRZ Stage 2 Turbocharger Kit - CARB Compliant WORKS FR-S/BRZ Stage 1 Turbocharger Kit - CARB Compliant Like @mav1178 said, the compliance process requires significant R&D investment to ensure emissions compliance, as well as hiring an independent lab to put the vehicle through a number of tests and drive cycles. The lab then sends the test data to the Air Resources Board, who issues an Executive Order (EO) number if the test data shows the added equipment does not increase emissions. Our kits retain both factory catalytic converters, contains hardware and software that passed these tests, and displays our EO number for reference during SMOG inspections. More info can be found here and here.

The only CARB legal one is the work's turbo kit mentioned few post up above. Other than that, any turbo charger can be "street legal" depending on where you live

My example of a turbo charger is .... "VTEC on drugs". It's a bunch of power that hits you at a certain RPM when your turbo is fully spooled. That's a simple explanation assuming you know what VTEC is. If you want more info, there are plenty of threads out there on Google that can go more indepth than what I can explain atm. |
