I'm thinking that the CAT lighting issues aren't that big of a deal: burned fuel is hot. Start any car -- even a Diesel, and let it idle for less than a minute. The A-pipe will be way too hot to the touch. Even a Prius makes heat within a minute of starting -- Atkinson style, with low emissions. It can be done.
