Does the car not have the O2 installed in the exhaust or it's there and just not working/hooked up?

If it's not there then yeah it would create a pretty good size exhaust leak so yeah it'll sound real loud and annoying. if it's in the exhaust just not working/hooked up then you'll prolly have a CEL on but the car will drive normally.

If your car's idle is jumping around it's usually a vacuum leak, or an IAC problem.
