Unless something has changed the D1 is not legal in Cali. The P1 is.

The D-1SC is not 50 state legal, the P-1SC is though. Bob

What's the difference between the D1 and P1? I'm guessing the P1 is cheaper right? I just read that the D1 is better, but don't know why.

The P-1SC and the D-1SC both use the same housing, but the D-1SC has beefed up internals that can make a lot more boost. If you ran both of these blowers at 8 psi of boost, the D-1SC would not need as small of a pulley to make 8 psi. Since it wouldn't have to spin as fast, it will stay cooler as well.
The P-1SC is 50 state legal though, where the D-1SC won't make it in California. Bob

Can't you slap on a P1SC data plate onto the D1SC and call it a day
(This would only be for informational/knowledge purposes only).

You would have to purchase a blower to do that. Serial plates are not available seperately.

Because the D1SC is not sold with a tune, so the state of tune can't be certified emmisions legal.

and they CAN impound.

carb. number or not.

it sucks, but my sheriff friend said that they dont check very often.....
