Exhaust turbine Alternator supplement idea

Hello everyone I am a long term lerker on these forums I never got involed because I was to young to drive on my own but I'm 16 now and I plan on buying a Golf TDI soon, when ever I can find one under $5K. Anyway I was wondering if it would be possible to put a turbine turned by exhaust fume's in the exhaust system that charged up the cars battery. Some questions I have are, would the effects of doing this negate any charging done? and how would this effect the way the car discharges exhaust fumes. Any other input or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
