what is cat failure? I'm already running high flow cats, and got a cel from that, but cleared it with the tune.

I'll try my best not to drive anywhere this weekend.

not only overheat, but the excess fuel could ignite in/on the cat causing some serious issues.

however, he should be ok driving easy till he gets it fixed.
