I put a Borla cat back system on recently. I would like to remove the cats but dont want to have codes or check engine light go off.Is there a way to eliminate that o2 code .Will it harm my car to remove the sensor and cats totaly? Im new to the exhaust work so any help will be great!

No it will not harm anything at all. It will actually run better. You can use 02 sims to eliminate the check engine light code or you can use something like HP tuners to delete it.

PS: I'll buy your stock cats from you.
