Does installing the SLI bridge connector between two GPU's improve crunching performance?

No,

In fact, it probably makes it worse. SLI has never been recommended while crunching

SLI is purely for gaming, and is only useful on titles that have specific support for it.

If you don't need it, then don't install, I never have. ;-)
