how to disable turbo
ok i got this idea the other day but dont know if its possible... if i were to get a turbo, before i went in to get it smoged, is there anyway i could temporarily disable the turbo so it would pass? like can i take a part off that will disable it, so the turbo has nothing to do with smog?

Still here... sorta...
I KNOW! You could use some invisible spray paint! 
h:
AND, just click the turbo switch to off.. that should work.
:chuckles:
I've been trying for about an hour now not to say anything... but I couldn't resist.

It's too bad you don't live in MD - no hood poppin' out here, they could care less. You could have 5 turbos under there whirring away, but as long as you fall under emissions specs, you're A-OK.

Well it's not much of a smog check if it's illegal, now is it? 
I'm curious, why do they do a visual inspection when doing a smog check? If the numbers are kosher... why does it matter?
I'm not very familar with smog testing... I don't know what or IF we have any of that here in pennsylvania.h:
