I heard of a gadget, catalytic converter, will this do the job? any suggestions? And HBOY, nice car you got there.
You can have a catalytic converter installed on your old beetle but it wont be cheap though unless you got it second hand from another car like the corolla or other similar equipted car.

You could ask around the muffler shops if they have 2nd hand cat converters. It would be a lot cheaper than buying a new one from Nodalos.

Another would be to re-tune your carb to be extra lean on the day of your emissions testing...
