I'm from California and smog here is highly strict. But I just want to know with those who done a 3sgte turbo swap if yours passed smog within your state?

Why wouldn't someone be able to pass emissions with a 3sgte? its not some mystical motor or anything. Its not like all the turbo mr2s and alltracs have to bribe the emissions places. If you dont have any cats or an egr thats a different story. If you buy a JDM motor it wont have an egr assembly (I'd bet money you would pass without an egr anyways... its just he visual part of not having and egr valve that will get you... simple solution... make the motor "look" like it has one). But if you swap and are worried about emissions just keep the stock "downpipe" assembly (which has a secondary cat on it) and get a high flow or regular cat in the original stock location. The motor isn't some huge polluter... you will pass if you do it right.. guarenteed.
