This is just a question, and don't want to be flamed about it. Yes I used search and read everything. I live in Az now, and smog is different then Cali. First smog is run in a few Goverment run stations. Its not run in any
kind of shop. Second they have been busted many times for fraud so changes have been implemented to stop this and making a bribe today will land you in jail. So my question is, I have a 97 Gt. So I can swap legally a usdm 97 and higher? Jdm is out, right? Due to egr? Was the turbo mr2 made up to 99? If I just turbo my 5 will I fail a visual? Does the turbo add to smog? I'm doing my research now. I read that a member here failed visual and had to go home and remove his turbo. Maybe I should hold on to stock parts(oil pan, manifold, etc) Thanks ahead guys

if your laws are that strict, then turbo or swap will fail inspection. maybe look into selling you car for an mr2 or an alltrac.

93 for the alltrac, 95 for the mr2

i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this.
