Any harm in....
driving around without my exhaust system on for a while. Im not fully removing the entire exhaust just from the slip-joint back or the end of the downpipe. This should be alright for a little bit right. What would any negative effects be besides the noise?

I did it for about 1-2 months.
Rattled the hell out of my shifter.
When I got my exhaust back on I noticed a few more interior squeeks and rattles.
Other than that, its loud as hell. You would probably not want to take the car anywhere more than 30 min away.
thats all.

it shouldnt cause motor problems at all....
may loose very little low end torque while its off. but you still ahve enough back pressure from the whimpy manifold, the little turbo and the catalitic converter, so you wont mess up a valve or anything.
