Failed smog check (cali)

Hi,
I just took a smog check and I failed
Could anyone recommend me what to do so that I could pass?

Here are my results:

HC(PPM)
Max AVE MEAS
141 41 37
116 29 32



CO %
Max AVE MEAS
0.86 .13 .67
0.66 .11 .72


NO(PPM)
Max AVE MEAS
1161 399 302
991 332 275


They tested the car at 15mph and 25mph.


I just put 91 octane and bought another O2 sensor.
Would replacing the plugs help?
I have a cone filter and stock cats to aftermarket dual mufflers.
Thanks!

its in the FAQ for FC on how to try and get it to pass.

Please read the FAQ for FC sticky thread before posting.

And year and model will also help when trouble shooting problems
