Ive had my cat on and off a few times. Throttle is definately crisper with the cat off.

Too much oil is bad, even if i's only a little, the blue smoke should stop once it's down to the mark, just keep an eye on it.

When cold?

ECU reset is unrelated to your issue, and it's not really needed.

Maybe the heat that would othewise be absorbed and disipated by the cat is burning oil from the remaining pipe?
