I think better than an alternator "delete" would be an alternator cutout switch attached to the throttle that activates when you press the pedal past some point. The higher the load, the less efficiency you gain from adding load. If the engine happens to be idling or DFCOing, you might as well charge the battery. This is how the new BMWs and Mazdas work. You probably want a manual switch anyways to charge the battery if you haven't charged it in a while and don't want to be stranded.
