if you do that you need to have it tuned out of the computer as well or else it will pop an engine code immediately! I dont think it hurts performance if you dont, but I HATE the damn SES light. If you do, I suggest having it tuned out.

LOL my line broke so I unplugged the sensor in the back. It popped the SES with no problem, so I figured I would delete it. Well less than a half mile away I was pulling away from a stoplight and my car backfired Insanely loud, and killed itself as i coasted to the shoulder. I thought for sure I toasted the engine for it shook the entire car. Luckily it was just backfires. I am assuming it just dumped a bunch of raw fuel in the intake??? Well anyways, started right up but with the evap code lol and i have been driving on it ever since.

Moral of the story. If you delete it make sure you tune out the code.
