I have removed the extra themes and Firefox seems quite a bit more speedy on loading up, do I need to remoce extensions to gain speed or is it just themes that slow it down?

Depends on the themes and extensions. Some add quite a lot of weight. Most normal extensions (no session stuff or crash recovery) won't affect things much, though.
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
You shouldn't have much of a slowdown with the vast majority of extensions. When they are first installed, there is a slowdown because Fx needs to edit extensions.rdf, prefs.js, and possibly others, which takes a while. I have 50+ extensions, and usually have no problem with speed.
