well if your engine was running rich it would cause the cat to heat up and throw a code. and shouldn't have anything to do with pressure unless theres a whole in it

Ya get it checked out properly just cause the code says thats the problem doesnt mean its true.
Do you have any aftermarket mod.s i.e. intake, exhaust, running low octane will also cause prob.
