They dont sniff 96-up cars anymore anyway. They are obd2 and check the computers. Then they do a safety check for the rest of the stuff, which Cats are included in that check and whether or not they pass you on the, will be whether or not you get the sticker.

You will get the sniffer and the dyno test

Scope the place out and find you a young kid looking to make a buck...If they are good they know how to make them pass by using a weight limit above what is safe for the dyno and a 2 speed idle test...better yet, they could tell the computer its 4 wheel drive. Many ways around it you just have to have a knowledgeable tech doing it.
