We have a local shop that will inspect emissions.  I would check with 
the local courthouse to see what you need for emissions and what years 
are excluded.  I'm not sure anymore what is excluded and what's not.  
Too many laws have changed over the past few years.  It used to be if 
you took the catalytic converter off before you took it to the muffler 
shop, you didn't have to have one (helped mpg), but know if the book 
shows your vehicle had one stock, it has to have one.  Those things run 
about $250-$300 each, plus the cost for rest of the exhaust system.  
Usually, by then, there is more in the exhaust system than the car is 
worth.  I think this is the way the government is trying to get rid of 
old cars.  People don't want to spend the money to get a converter plus 
a exhaust system,  so they usually go without and then usually junk the 
car in a year or two.  I got a new exhaust system put on my '78 Dodge 
Magnum before they changed the laws about the converters, so I didn't 
have a dual cat. system, but I still spent about $200 for a new dual 
exhaust for my car.  Sounded good, but expensive.
