don't understand i didn't think you had to get a emisions test in missouri to be able to get your car licensed or what not. never had to get my cars emision tested. maybe i'm just being ignorant, that sucks though

they don't check emissions levels on 96 and up any more they plug into the computer and see if all of the I/M system flags are ready and no codes, thats all, if they pass then you are passing emission standards

sure will fail, if the cat is broken up on the inside then you will notice a huge performance issues, such as misfires to a leaking exhaust sound, it will feel like you are slamming on the gas but the car goes nowhere. ohh and the cat itself will be a purple color
