Del Sol won't pass emissions

I got a Del Sol and it won't pass emissions in VA. The cat and o2 sensor were replaced with stock units and still does not pass. Any ideas?

Here are the numbers:

hc ppm 15mph
limit 183
mine 143
hc ppm 25mph
limit 200
mine 154

co% 15mph i failed the tests at the 15mph and 25mph marks
limit 0.73
mine 1.92
co% 25mph
limit 1.07
mine 2.00

no ppm 15mph
limit 2400
mine 2160
no ppm 25mph
limit 2333
mine 2123

the reason i put the exhaust on was because, the car had the full muffler assemble rusted underneath including the hders

so i just bought http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISA...WN:IT

I would change the oil and do a tune up, that usually seems to help a little. Niether of the links are working right now. I'd PM hazw8st. He's out here in CA but he seems to know his **** better than anyone I've dealt with when it comes to smog issues.
