I know 2 Turbos would pass Cali Smog at 7 PSI
1996 through 2001 model-year Acura Integras equipped with the 4 cylinder, dual over head camshaft (DOHC) V-Tec engine The Performer X Turbo Kit includes the following main parts: Garrett T-28 Turbocharger (model # GT28R for SOHC applications and model # GT28RS for DOHC applications), equipped with a waste gate set at 7 psi., an intercooler, Performer X intake manifold with four additional injectors that are controlled by a stand alone controller, exhaust manifold, and an intake air tube with an open element air cleaner attached. High pressure fuel hoses that are modified are replaced with a Gates SAE30R9 fuel hose.
Just because they have CARB EO numbers doesn't mean they will pass smog. My setup was completely legal but I still had to pay to have it smogged illegally because any legitimate smog place just popped the hood and laughed. They won't bother to run the CARB EO numbers.
The fine is so hefty for passing an illegally modified car that they won't even fuck with it.
