The tone is noticeable from 2500-4000rpm range, so if your shifting at 4k just to hear the tone, then yeah it will effect fuel economy, otherwise, I don't see any difference in my milage.
Hope that helps.

No you won't see a decrease in MPGs unless you floor it 24/7 to hear your exhaust note.

Removing these should unrestrict your exhaust flow actually but probably not significant enough for a +1MPG bump.
