Does Driving without engine cover cause problems?
Currently have mine off cuz my catch can hoses are in the way until I move them around to fit the engine cover on, had to rush to work so just left the engine cover off. Is there anything negative about having it off?

You might hear the injectors and engine a little more than usual.
No harm will come to anything.

It's just a decorative cover, you are fine removing it.
