It's an oxygen sensor, and regardless of state level enforcement you'd be breaking federal law to disable an emissions device like this. Your catalytic converter has ZERO impact on power, so there's no reason to disable it in the first place.

FYI, TheRangerStation doesn't generally allow discussion of tampering with emissions equipment.

Oh, you mean like rolling a joint, where you get some ball joints and turn them into tops?
