Personal opinion but it is rather foolish passing the MOT this way. A car not running right will knacker your new cat. I suggest, as others have, that you probably have a sensor fault MAF / MAP or Lambda.
From the readings it is, for a modern engine, running quite rich and at today's fuel prices that will soon add up and long term the fuel costs will outweigh sorting the sensor let alone the cost of another knackered cat.

Morris 1000, Austin 1100, Escort Mk2, Fiat Mirafiori, Alfa 33, Alfa GT Junior, Alfasud, Alfetta GTV (2x), Alfa 164 3.0 V6, Alfa 164 2.0, Alfa 75 V6, Alfa 156 2.4 (diesel remapped 200bhp), Alfa 147 GTA (3.6 295bhp), Alfa 159 (diesel remapped 245bhp 300ft.lbs @ 2500rpm)
Why isn't my daughter an Alfaholic?
