IF you did it the high-teck MITten way you could get an extra 3-4 miles per hour. You'd get roughly an extra KWHr/Hr and as far as I can tell thats 3-4 miles. Its not huge but it really is free, like sunshine.
If you did it the really easy way with coils around the springs and a magnet mounted on a shaft inside the springs you'd probably get about half that. . .but you could do that whereas the hydraulic fluid and. . .would be heavy and not easy. Better off just spending the time and money you would spend on that system and getting a truly enormous magnet for each coil.
I might test this out this weekend. . .depending on what ends up needing fixed at the shop this weekend.
