If I was going to test an electrically heated catalyst, I would start
with nichrome.  Keep It Simple.

I'm not enthused about electrically heated catalysts, because they are
not as simple as ambient temperature catalysts, and we have not seen
catalyst temperature problems since before we starting getting good
data a couple years ago.  There is also the issue of power consumption
(P =~ T^4) on a reusable vehicle where we care about weight.
