   No, techinically it can't. However, if somehow it's causing a blockage in the airflow, it could cause power issues.

   Hmm, OK. If you definately need a new CAT, then get a new CAT. If at the sametime you don't notice any improvement in the car's performance, we'll need to start looking at other possibilities.
