Ditching the PS will save you maybe a couple of HP (And a few lbs) and will let your engine rev a bit quicker. You don't want to just ditch the belt though. The steering will get pretty heavy and unresponsive. The best way to do it is to minimize the plumbing that the fluid has to travel through by looping the hydraulic lines and keeping fluid in the rack or gutting the valve body in the rack entirely.
