I'd be curious to see it tested, I think pressure drop will be more substantial once you start extracting heat from the exhaust... cooler = more dense, more pressure to move it.
FYI - the pressure drop of intercoolers and radiators is tested under 0 thermal load. the temp going in is the temp going out, minus ambient air changes. In other words, while being tested, it's acting as a free air radiator, but not as an intercooler.
Edit - Darin posted awhile back on wattage required by the alternator for his car - yours is probably higher. I'd say at least 500W to cover all bases, but I'd worry about making it work, first.

I'd like to think that people might open their eyes at some point... instead, I find it more and more likely that I'll just close mine.
