I just don't understand why people want to do this. At most you might see 25lb in weight savings. Do you really think this is going to make your car a hotrod? I go to http://www.vwvortex.com a lot and see people talking about removing their a/c, and I just think it has to be a lack of knowledge thing. The only time your a/c is going to cause power loss is when the compressor is engaged and pumping. When the a/c is off absolutely nothing is going on except a belt spinning a pulley. And if you were to spin that pulley you would realize it spins with almost no drag - so where is the "power loss?" Saabs are luxury cars, don't start ripping things out because it makes the car look like it hasn't been cared for very well. That's if you ever want to sell I suppose.
