converter ?

My T/A failed for high no2, all other readings were in spec.It a 305 H.O.I was told that this means my converter might have to be replaced, its the original one that came with the car,is this the case or should I look at something else on the car?

You could always just by a hi-flo cat anyways, you'll improve performance and sound, plus it might be just what you need to pass emissions.
