NEED A LEAGAL TURBO SET UP!
PLEASE!!

 

my understanding is that as long as it meets emisons reqirments and dosent polute a.k.a trumpet mufflar then it's ok.

 

Its going to need a CARB sticker to be legal, and to my knowledge, none of the kits are.

 

i dont know about the em2 but for an ef u can get the greddy turbo kit leagil but it needs a carb sticker and a bar sticker. carb says it's leagl to install and the bar is the reffre sticker when u get it smoged. i dont know much just repeating what i've heard.

 

i've been wondering on the same question too

 

since the d17 isnt a popular motor, not many major companies are going to produce carb legal kits like greddy, inline pro, rev hard, etc.

No one makes any turbo that is carb legal....for our civic...

not even popular dezod kit...its not carb legal...

greddy dont make cause not enough buyers/tuners...

if you dont have enough money, dont bother....

 

you're going to have to go custom, get it carb'd and bar'd.

cali sucks hahhaha

 

there isnt NO WAY to make the garrett t25 leagal????

 

yup it sucks...i told you...

read read read and research...

 

there halfs to be some way to get A sticker that will fool ANY COP.

comes factory, meaning they make the setup as environmental friendly as possible, for them to be legal and pass smog, etc.

SF went out of business, they ripped off a lot of people, they never got their kit carb stamped or whatever is required in CA, therefore, it's not legal.

like stated above, there isn't a legal turbo kit for the D17.

what i've seen people do is put GREDDY stamps on their custom turbo kit to show a cop that its a legal kit (greddy is legal for b series) - cops don't know the difference.

 

Dud,

It means that your turbo is putting more harmful gas into our lungs....i dont care if it screws your lungs and your body...i dont care if you put bullet in your head....

but dont do that to me....you say that cali sucks because of all these laws....then obey the law....

 

if you're going into that, your car alone is putting harmful gas into your body and others in your area. so why not get a hybrid if that's what you're worried about.

isn't NJ (maybe NY - still close) one of the highest poluted states in the US anyways? funny you brought that up.

 

If you pass smog with/without a turbo good on you. Don't look for any turbo to be legal but I have known Greddy Turbos and Rev Hard turbos to pass smog in Civics.

 

i'll get threw it some way some how..

thanxs & good lookin on everybody input.
