Default Smog with turbo kit?

Can you take your car to a regular smog station and pass with turbo installed?
Has anyone ever tried?

I think he means A CARB Sticker. I may be wrong.

So does everyone take theirs off their custom turbo setup to smog the car.
I don't think the turbo would cause you fail a sniffer test, but maybe the visual.
I may be wrong. Can someone add to this?

for real mo info on smogging a turbo'd car. i think AZ. is pretty lax on visual as far as sniffer i would say a new 02 sensor good a/f ratio and a new cat would improve your chances greatly(im guessin)
