Default Need help in St. Louis LS1 Edit

My car has failed emission test twice now. However the guy with the sniffer test that if I clear my code out on OB computer and get rid of the SES light. That he will not have to do the sniffer test since the car is 96 or newer. My SES light is on for the EGR valve. I need some close by in St. Louis to help to eliminate this code with LS1 Edit. Please help I have been driving on expired plates for awhile now.
