To make cat last longer:
1) Immediately following successful emissions test, remove catalytic converter and replace with straight pipe.
2) Shortly before next emmissions test, reinstall catalytic converter.
Or you could, like, keep your car tuned up, slightly leaner than most rotary fanatics prefer, keep the air pump and make sure it's functional.
