If i drive it without anything in the sensor hole how will it effect it? The lack of back pressure? I have to drive it to base tonight 30 miles one way so im a little nervous.

It will not run as good as it should, as it won't be getting info from the O2 sensor, and the sel will come on. (and it will be a tad louder.....) Aside from that, just make sure that things are tucked up out of the way, so they don't get wrapped up in something that moves.... and you should be ok. It is also going to be blowing hot exhaust at the floorboard, THAT would concern me some.....

it won't hurt it. just be sure and tie your wire up off the pipe.
it'll sound like it has a big hole in the muffler.
and it'll get a little lesser mpg.

you're being paranoid, drive on.

hell, if you haven't had it plugged in for 6 months, having it removed makes little difference. LOL
