A few to check.
Check STS for twin turbos. Procharger for centrifugal superchargers. Callaway and Magnacharger for positive displacement superchargers. They seem to be the best at getting CARB numbers for their products.

The Vortech kit is the only centrifugal system that I know that has an actual CARB number(50-state smog legal under CARB EO# D-213-25). As far as I know any kit that is sent to have a custom program made for the system to work i.e. a tuner Kit then that wouldn't qualify for a CARB number.
As far as the Turbo systems I don't know. Got to each companies website and the CARB number should be easily found.
Also, If your in Florida do you really have to have a California Air Resource Board number?
Cheers,
Chad

Here's hoping Vortech will update the cert. Maybe it's the hydrocarbon absorbers in the intake that holds them back. Wasn't that an '07 addition?
I hope that more of the manufacturers will take this on. My belief is that the current Green hysteria will lead to the introduction or reintroduction of emissions testing in a lot of places that are currently "loose". Hope I'm wrong, but I doubt it.

I was under the impression that the D1SC has a Carb # ??? I thought as long as the head unit has the number it was fine.
I was also under the impression that STS was the only turbo kit with Carb # ??? Doesnt it say that on their magazine adds ?

Is Callaway or Magnuson actually developing a system for the Z06, or is this statement based on adapting the LS3 system? The reason I ask is the talk about a Maggie being in the pipeline for the Z06 has been around for quite a while, and I spoke with the guy at Magnuson a week or two ago who was supposedly the person who deals with Corvette systems, and he told me they had no plans of marketing a Z06 system anytime soon.
