Funny that you had this problem. I had same issue last year, although not limited to 3500rpm but once I got to 80mph it would take about 30 seconds more to get to 90 !
My cat was shot to pieces but here the story carries on. Got a new cat from Ariel and installed, all fine and car working well. That was as last summer. And then, just yesterday, on track day at Snetterton and after just 5 laps out the same loss of power ! Took the cat off and guess what, same problem, all messed up.
Spoke with Ariel who agree it is odd and suggested investigating further when next at the factory (fuel / injectors). Like you mine runs fine with bespoke decat now
