Anyone with a supercharged 997S in California that has tested and passed smog?

 

I have a friend with a supercharged Cayman S (essentially the same issues) and hasn't had any issues so far. (It was done by Alois Ruf,--I wouldn't suggest others).

 

My understanding is that the system has to be CARB(Calif. Air Resources Board) certified in order to pass the visual inspection. The TPC system was not CARB certified, but I don't know about the Evo MS system or any other SC for that matter. Maybe someone with more knowledge can weigh in?

 

The Ruf will be less lkiely to fail the visusal since except for the drive pulley and "Ruf" on the airbox, it looks stock. The others are pretty obvious. I don't think any of them have CARB stickers.
