I would prefer smog test to safety check/recon, a lot less headache and you only have to worry about one thing, your TBE, not the entire damn car

never been to cali huh? you forget getting pulled over and having the contents of your engine searched for 20 min. then having a cop pull out a picture of a honda motor and question why yours looks diffferent lol. or even better the ones that just send you to the state ref. having been on both sides trust me its much easier over here than there, whats a recon violation fine $1XX? if they discover you have a turboback your looking in excess of $30000, 10gs for each cat missing.
