Turbo smog legal in cal....?

[turdburgler]

Is it possible to have a s14 that's smog legal in California? I've come to the realization that even though I'm up to my eye balls in projects I need to start thinking about an Engine rebuild and I'd like more power! My wife laughs at me when the modern cars just drive away on the straights ! Maybe I should just get rid of her? I just know turbo basics but if I go this way I'd like low boost/ mild build so I don't turn the trans & rear diff into gravel...

It wont pass the visual inspection at your local smog test station.

Which is dumb because even if your car runs cleaner that a Prius they will deny you based on what the bay looks like vs. what is coming out of the tailpipe.

I am not up on what the techs at the Referee stations are look for these days...
