Bugs? Not sure what that is, but just put a solid plug in your o2 hole to plug the leak. (or hell you could just leave the o2's in if you really wanted to)

when you remove you cats your O2s will send codes that they are malfunctioning as stated above. to delete the codes you have to tune your rear O2s (that is to delete them) using a tunning software which ever it is, and no more ses.

If you take the cats out you will either need to get them tuned out or get O2 simulators which will trick the CPU into thinking they are working correctly. But honestly taking off the cats will not make that much of a difference. People generally take tune them out when they do LT's b/c they don't want to buy them. Sure they will give you a few HP but not enough to go though the trouble of gutting them or putting straight pipes in IMO
