Limp Mode!?

I have had this happen 3 times now. Ill be driving normal, coming up to a traffic light or a turn so Ill slow down and the car will shut off. My SES light is on and I got it read. It was P0420, which has to do with the Hgh Flow Cat I put on. The SES light has been on for about 2 weeks now. Im putting in the O2 sensor spacer today, hoping it will clear the code. Is the P0420 code Im throwing casing the car to go into limp mode.

List of parts on the car:
AMS CAI
AMS FMIC
AMS UICP/LICP
AMS HFC
AP CBE
Exedy Stage 2 HD Clutch
ACT Streetlite Flywheel
Prosport Boost Gauge
and it is NOT tuned yet.

Ill be getting tuned as soon as I get my tax return. I planned on getting it done last month but my clutch went out so I had to get that replaced instead of getting it tuned.

Def a tuning issue. Espicially the fact that you have an intake.
