It looks like it would be very difficult to drive a second alternator via the crankshaft. Would it be feasible to drive an alternator by putting a pulley on an axle? Obviously it won't help at idle but maybe between that and a higher capacity battery it could do the trick? I don't know if these cars have IRS, if they do then this probably wouldn't work.
