If you're removing the seats for weight savings to go faster, forget it. Its a little lame to remove seats in your non-race car for a .05 1/4 mile savings :D

Removing the A/C reduces the load on the engine and frees up a little power. Not worth the inconvenience IMO, but its better than removing the seats.

Try a local dump to get your car weighed.
