Good question siegfried. I generally tend to suspect pretty much every other component before i suspect the cat (particularly a new one) when there is an emissions problem. At least in my area, if everything else is working properly these cars easily pass emissions even with 10 year old cats (and, in one instance a hollowed out cat).
Is the car running well otherwise? Are the AMM, O2 sensor, and FPR working properly. Is timing set to spec?
