Since I no longer have to go for emission tests, I'm looking to ditch the air pump on my 91. Will the stock computer throw a code?

The computer won't miss the air pump, but it will miss the TAD & TAB solenoids if you disconnect them. A 70 ohm, 2 watt resistor soldered and heat shrinked across each of the solenoid connectors in place of the solenoids should eliminate the codes.
