the temp in the cat. converter can affect the timing on the car, when he is moving down the street air flowing under/around the car....possibly the car is still warming up...the car might perform as normal...then you strap it on a dyno and run it a few times to redline with the car just sitting there...it wouldnt take long for the cat to get hot and pull timing and add fuel to cool things down....

although could the car really correct enough to lose 100hp?
