With no cats you may well trigger a CEL on the dash which would be annoying and possibly mask a future issue that would also trigger the CEL.
You could of course take the car to a tuner and have the error codes from rear lambdas coded out permanently.
^ ^ ^ Yep, I get exactly this after fitting sports cats. I reset the light then a few journeys later it's back on. Annoying but I've learnt to live with it. Would be good if it could be coded out though.
