The only emissions-related parts that affect engine performance are the cats. The rest makes no difference at all. The engine will only run better if in the process of removing the emission controls you also remove or repair something that was actually causing a problem. If you stuff it up you can make the engine run worse.

fewer vacuum lines/components generally means less things that could go wrong. Some of the things you may want to keep are:
vacuum lines to oil injectors - regulate the oil injection amount (if want to keep the omp)
thermowax - bumps up idle on cold starts
fuel atomizer line - helps fuel dispersment or something
FPR - fuel pressure regulator
BAC - if you have A/C you may want to keep this so you wont stall when you turn it on
Also its a lot easier to take the uim off for repairs/maintanence with emissions rack/rats nest removed
do a search for rats nest and you should be able to find good diagrams describing how to route everything
