You would have to keep all the emmissions control stuff in place, not sure how they would like the fuel setup that would be required for the turbo though. I guess it would depend on how strict your area was on vehicle emmissions as well. Graphite had his Neon turbocharged in Massachusetts and i think they have pretty strict laws so I'm sure he could answer your question a little better.

For an 03-04 R/T the best cam is the Comp 400 because you can keep the Magnum valvetrain components and use the stock PCM. For a 01-02 R/T I would go with an AF/xR PCM, Crane 14 cam, and titanium valve springs. Ohio doesnt have emmissions testing mandated by the state, but certain counties do have testing...

Thats why you find a shop that does the inspections and you pay him about 100$ and get him to just pass you. Aslong as your car stops and most major things work then you should be fine, Ive done it. This is in NJ tho.
