Considering that a cat-back exhaust setup should not have caused either of those problems, I would say that you somehow screwed something up in the process of installing the system. Are there any codes present that might point you in the right direction?

Check the fuel filter and catalytic converter. Make sure the O2 sensor is good, it could be dumping fuel and clogged the cat. It's possible it or the wire got messed up.
