It's fun to think about but you would still spend your time and money much more effectively on less esoteric approaches: driving style/habits, aerodynamic drag reduction, mechanical drag reduction, engine tuning. These solutions can yield the kind of results you're seeking, and are proven effective. The system you want to install will be very expensive and you're already talking about completely redesigning the drivetrain to accommodate it. There are better gains to be had for less cost and effort, why not pursue those first?
