Default EG vs EK Question

I have noticed that MOST of the turbo cars have a EG Chassis.

Why is this chassis so more common than the EK?

I think its more personal preference to be honest. Also, a clean EG Si will cost much more than a clean EK being that they are harder to find and more rare. Its just preference and a lot of people happen to like EG's. I myself like EK's but hey to each his own.

I love my ek turbo but i cant register it in Chicago due to emission testing i would have to find an eg which are exempt from emissions so it makes getting an eg harder in chicago due to emissions and theft.

i run an EG and the reason i stick with them is because of NY state emissions.
obd1 check through the exhaust
obd2 check through the ecu so i would have to put it to stock once a year to get inspected
