Downpipes without tune

Hey all, so I just picked up a set of used capristo catless downpipes for the e63s, would I notice any improvement or side effects of running the Downpipes without a custom tune?I know it will be slightly louder and I'm assuming faster spool due to less restrictions. Also am aware about the o2 code which I got spacers for

Thats what I am running now , no tune, but the spacers wont work. They may stop the p0420 and p0430 codes ,but you will still have o2 sensor heater codes . Car does feel stronger with the catless and sounds better .

With the heater codes, are they shadow codes or will you actually get a light on the dash?

A light on the dash. I just clear it once a month to make sure nothing else is acting up. I tried everything except a tune to get it to stay out and it just keeps coming back,

Not meant to be inflammatory - why would you not run a tune if you are running hatless?
