If you put in a new cat are you sure its not the problem? Some ECUs don't have enough adjustment range to deal with different types of cats, so your O2 might be sending the wrong signals.

make sure your tires aren't mounted incorrectly. I had a broad come in with the exact same complaints, and her tires were on backwards. fixed it up and she was good to go.
when you changed the exhaust did you check or replace the muffler bearings? They fail often on the ol EGs and can cause similar problems as you're having.
Hope that helps

for what car? if its eg civic, i can "guess" its the coil/ignitor that is going on your car, my crx use to do that too. try changing the whole dizzy, or individually change the coil and ignitor in your dizzy. its a common honda problem.

header back two and a quarter. | funky driveability and shit mileage? i'd be looking at the O2 sensor.
wouldn't be telling your ECU the proper info which would cause it to possibly compensate for a condition that doesn't exist, and would also mess with your mileage as it might be dumping in extra fuel that it doesn't need to.

check your oil cap to make sure there aren't snakes in your valvetrain, 9/10 times that can cause poor mileage and missfiring issues.

That's not the point, the point is, has your car recovered by installing it?

Yes, thats what i tried to state without being rude.
so far so good.
Im going to wait and see till my tank is empty and see how the milage is.
As for the pedal... its not sticking anymore which is strange ( after the 02 ) , and as for it lugging in D3 or D4 , its fine now.
