-Noncontact temp gun shows cat at approximately 500 degrees F at idle.
-Verified duty cycle at idle, set to 50-55% (I noticed the DC is much more stable at idle and easier to adjust)
-Verified O2 senor voltage at idle, swings from .1-.9Vdc
-Drove the car and monitored Duty cycle and O2 voltage. Duty cycle swings from approx. 46% - 60%. O2 voltage swings from .015 -.8Vdc

I am still getting a surging at constant loads, light throttle, and slow driving (parking lots).

Any thoughts on what to look at next? Again, surging goes away when system is in open loop.

Are you getting the pulling/surging when your driving at normal speeds and rpms are above 3K? If I drive my SC at low rpms I feel the same response you are experiencing. Drive your SC, maybe issue will resolve itself after 200 miles. See link attached
