hi...

cat temp????

there is a small sensor I believe, in the actual exhaust pipe (not the O2 sensor, further down the line) that 'monitors' the temp you are talking about....it actually should be inserted into the cat convertor, and indicates that temperature.

Could this sensor be damaged due to the installation of your new zorst....it's just that this happenend to me a while ago!!!

Get under your car and make sure nothing is disconected.

Hope that might help.
