Nothing other than chances of failing your etest. (If your state/province requires one)

You can get the check engine light off by putting spark plug nonfoulers over your rear o2 sensor.

Ya just google it its easier to understand with a picture. You need 2 of the spark plug non foulers then you drill one out so it slips over the o2 sensor and you screw them together. It tricks the computer into thinking your cat works. I had to do it because I have a really hi flow cat installed if you catch my drift. You get the non foulers at any autoparts store.

Taking your cat off wont hurt anything... just dont get pulled over haha.

You will get the CEL unless you trick your O2 sensors - maybe how like Dodge guy said but im not sure.
