by using a pressure gauge.drill a small hole in front of the catalytic converter.hook pressure gauge into the hole.start engine and drive the vehicle at full throttle while observing the gauge. 2 or more psi indicate clogged.

Take it to a muffler shop and they will check it out by using a pyrometer, which tells the temp of the cat. There is a normal temp variation from the inlet to the outlet.
