You cannot and will not lose performance doing this mod. You also will not gain any performance from this mod. The whole cold air/warm engine air argument is not valid as this is a closed system and air can ONLY be drawn from the outside of the car.

I have not tried to reinstall the snorkel but don't see why it cant be done. Nothing "breaks" when pulling out the snorkel. It is basically just pressure fitted into the airbox. It may take a bit of work to get it to snap back in...but I don't think you will ever want to do this once you remove it. The sound is just perfect with no worries of any type of resonance like on an exhaust system. As stated earlier...the best part...it costs $0!
