If you still have catalytic converters, leave the smog pump alone. If you don't, then go ahead bypass it.

Catalylitic converters need oxygen to work properly and the air pump suppies that oxygen. If you cut off that air supply, your cats will get clogged. Any horsepower gain from removing the pump is negligible.
