Total cost for turbo's, shipping and reconversion to stock would be $15,000 that I would eat in depreciation. At that price point, I might as well get a used Corvette z06.

Here in Cali, if you have a new car, instead of an annual smog check, we have the smog abatement fee. The only problem you would probably have is if you got pulled over and you had to pop your hood for the cop, and once he sees your turbo/SC set up, he may send you to a referee even though you don't have to do smog check for the next 6 years.
