Question ? for CA supercharger install

Okay I live in CA and want to get a supercharger installed. Which one can I get (if any) and still be smog legal (#'s wise that is)? Is there one out there? I don't want a major boost, because it is not a racer. Just want that edge when I need it every now and again. How much is it also for whatever ones that you guys reccommend? Any input is appreciated.

ATI or Vortech. Around 5-6 g's.

Just make sure you get it installed at Don Lee Auto. They know their stuff. Unless you wanna do it yourself...
