There would probably be a small HP gain in removing the airpump and the rest of the emissions. The airpump is belt driven, so some power loss there, and by removing the ACV and EGR valves, you might gain alittle power, ie 1 hp.

But the main reason to do this is to clean up the engine bay, second is weight.
