Honestly, you'll probably wont see any gains at all.  If you do it will be at the expense of your low end torque though.  Also, you could run into some heafty fines if you caught without one.

The problem is there is a difference in the O2 reading betweek pre and post cat readings.  They need to be different.  There are ways to trick the secondary O2 but in all honesty, I wouldn't do it.
