You can take it off. I have ALL my heatshields taken off. It requires you removing (2) 10mm bolts.

I have had mine off for 2 years with no problems, both front and rear. The only problems i've heard of are premature bearing wear on the fronts due to the extra heat but these cases have been only on race cars never on street cars.
