Are you thinking about something like this? Yes you still need the upper stone shield behind the bumper.

No it wouldn't give you any more horsepower. I think your buddy is trying to sound like he knows more than he does. What's the current status of the car? Could we get pics

No, there's gain in horsepower there. But it does run a bit cooler.

What color is your car? I've been wanting get the one that deletes the bumper, but since my car is white, I'm afraid the seams will be ugly and visible since the front of these cars don't really fit together very well.
