Hmm, did you say you were "going 60, but, revolutions were too high"?? That's beginning to sound like transmission issues? If you are lucky it's only a computer or speed sensor??? Why did you replace the cat?? I would suggest that you take it to a professional mechanic...

There is a recall on the transmission that is good for upto 120k miles. It needs a new transmission, mine did the same thing. Dealer replaced free of charge. Have them check your vin #
