Prom is the "chip" which gets installed in the ECM, the cars computer, if you find a company like (PCM's for less) for example or a similar prom burning company and call them and explain what you have done in terms of modifications to your car they will custom burn you a prom. If you decide to look into this PM me and i will give you the contact info of someone at PCM's for less i trust will give you the best advice. I dont rememebr what it costs to have a prom burned but I remember it being around $100 - $150 like 10 years ago.
As for removing smog pumps, AC Power stering etc., Id simply id look into simply re routing the belt first by passing those accessories, maybe even install an underdrive pully on the balancer but if yu drive thecar every day, removing those things will really inhib the drivability for pretty unsubstancial gains. When the A/C is off its not putting any drag on your motor, as for the power stering and smog pumps there is probably a way to bypass them without removing them. Those parts dont weigh that much eather, maye the compressor is a few pounds.
It depends what you want to use the car for but not having A/C, power stering, that just sucks, not having smog pumpks on a car that was origionaly equiped with them is for one illegal if you get caughty and the car may not pass inspection, the O2 sensors may even throw a code off in teh ECM all for a 1/4 second... just some things to consider
