your ecu will be annoyed... that's about it.... (also, it may be thinking the air coming in is too cold or too hot... and sending fuel as such)

I had a friend with a Corolla that had a CAI from EL Prototypes and it didnt have a hole for his air temp sensor....rode around with the sensor just dangling in his engine compartment. He didnt notice any problems, but i would reccomend replacing the sensor and making sure it works just to be nice to your engine.
