i would suggest o2 sensors and new catalytic converters. there is also this stuff called cata cleen but at 25 dollars a bottle and needed at least two bottles to effectively use it it would be a serious waste of $50 if it did not work.
you can also try seafoam but put in cheap spark plugs first before you do this because it could foul the plugs.
you could take this back to the shop that did the work on your car and blame the emissions test on them and get some of your money back or make them at least diagnose it for free. its at least worth a shot? usually emissions has to do with catalytic converters and o2 sensors. take this as an excuse to buy a few high flow cats and free up a few horsepower.
