I'm going to say you will gain 2-3 HP, but taking out the A/C is mainly for weight reduction.

you'll only lose power if the a/c is putting a load on the engine. Its not when its off.

Yes it still has to spin the pulley but the clutches aren't engaged so its not a significant load.

you'll gain like .02 hp

Its for weight savings

It is more of a weight reduction thing than a HP thing.
