i live in california do you think it would be legal to swap a turbo from a 2nd gen into a gsl-se or do you think i should stick with a 13b and fix that up or maybe get a turbo on it? what do you think would be the best thing to do?

 

you can swap and keep all emissions... do a search and you will find all you need. Also check the first few threads in the 1st gen forum

 

look at the stick at the top of the page...... more than enough info to give you a good idea as to whats involved. That being said, don't expect a hand holding on this one, its not an easy swap as far as swaps go. There is a good amount of fabrication involved.
