how it's in USA?
i was wondering, how it's in use when you boost your car and you must to pass the "compulsory vehicle inspection" ? do you need to "standardize" your car cuz before your car be na and now is turbo? or you just boost your car and havent problems with cops and you pass properly the "compulsory vehicle inspection" ?
just curious
here (in spain when im living ) it's a really really crap..
i'm my country.. just you need to have correctly the VIN number with engine and so good and you will have not problems..

Try livin in CA. and with a hmt kit. smog refs/ love you!! inspections here are every other year. most of us just have stock motors layin around just for smog purposes. Or get a hook up with a shop that does illegal smogs that cost a pretty penny. I gotta smog my hatch in Sept. sux.

Only certain states and cities have mandatory emissions testing. Most people will make their car stock before they test, then install their ---- after they pass.
Or they have a friend that works for an emissions testing place that can say they passed.
Or they bought a greddy kit
which is street legal.

Re: how it's in USA?
when I was stationed in california, I had to pay $300 to pass smog with a stock b16 swap under the table. now beingwith the US army in Germany my car only has to pass the brake test, have no oil leak, no rust, or no exhaust leak, its a lot better now. but for actual Germans the law here really suck. if dont come stock with the car they cant have it.

Japan has the most retarded tests around. Although, it does keep the shitty cars off the side of the road, and with as many cars as there are on this tiny island, you dont see to many broke down.
How to pass the test, find someone who will "paper test" your car or make your car stock if your worried about it when you do the test. My "paper test" ran me about $100 more than a regular inspection would have.
