I plan on doing a more thorough test (unless someone beats me to it), but I ran some 20000 game simulations with both catchers having identical Catching Ability to see how much the ERA difference was. I left the Catcher's Arm the same in order to only see what the CABI ratings effect was on ERA. In preliminary testing, with a CABI of 1, the team ERA was 4.20. When CABI was 60, it was 3.98, and when CABI was 127 (the max I could get it to), the ERA was 3.84. So far it looks like the results (I've tested other ratings like 50 and 100) have resulted in a fairly even decrease in ERA as the CABI went up. I'd like to do the test with the CARM being identical all the way through for both catchers and the CABI going up in consistent increments (either 10 or 25) and see how it turns out.
