Re: turbo
why wouldnt a swap allow you to pass inspection? I dont know much about your states' regulations or whatever but if you do the swap right, then you shouldnt have any problem. But try doing some searching and see if you find your answer there but yes, if you turbo you will need a tune

Re: turbo
You MUST tune your ECU after installing a turbo kit. You can use the original computer if your turboing the motor in your car, but you have to tune it or else it will run super lean and you will do a lot of damage real fast. Chip it and tune with crome. Its the cheapest and it is actually a pretty decent setup.
