    umm... Evos, SRT-4, WRX, etc. all have turbo chargers on them and I'm pretty sure they pass just fine. Just a guess but I think it'll be alright...
    Back to being stock and slow

    those are also factory turbo cars so they have to pass.

    A stock turbo system on a stock car will obviously have no issues. Its when you get into modding, emissions go up. You plan on deleting the EGR? the cat? other power-robbing emission equipment? Sometimes, something as simple as a performance oriented ECU remap will throw you over the edge.

    Have you thought of boosting your car AFTER you get it smogged?

    well a friend of mine has a turbo b16 and running 6 psi in a eg hatch and puts a cat on when it comes time to pass emission and after he is done he puts a high flow cat on and drives a whole year

    if u want get a chip burned for ur car with no turbo and get another one when u get ur car tuned for the turbo

    then for emission take the spring out of the wastegate
    switch back to stock injectors
    and shift at like 3000 rpm and put miles back on the ecu
    go down and u will be able to pass emisions

    put do this all the time for turbo obd2 car so it works it a proven trick i was going to have to do it on my ek but i ended up goin all motor


    Call batlground or talk to Mr.Kidd they will be able to give u more info on it

    90% of the turbo honda/acuras i tune pass. it really depends on your setup. a little more info will help.

    obd2 is a little more effort to pass, but mine passes legally every year since i turbo'd it 5 years ago.
