Aftermarket turbo illegal in CA?

Hey guys, some guy in the NOS forum was talking about how he didn't want to get a turbo installed bcuz he was worried about if he got pulled over and a cop noticed his turbo. Are aftermarket turbos illegal in California? I've never heard of this before until tonite, does anyone in here have an idea of the laws on it?

For the most part, yes. You have to have a carb approved kit. There are a couple out there that have a carb number to show the kits compliance and thus legality of the turbo kit.

screw legal man. Most cops aren't going to pop your hood and sniff your shit unless you get cought at the night races. Then they like to fuck with you, they'll even get under your car and make sure you have a cat! I'm glad I don't live in cali.
