I read somewhere that the cold start cat cycle is for environmental regulations only as the cat converters only filter efficiently when warm and the cycle is just for burning extra rich mix to quickly heat it up. It probably is not even good for the engine. I would disable it if it could be done without requiring a third party ECU flash like MB.
