This is just a crazy sort of idea, but if you could throw some sort of turbine/propeller/impeller in the exhaust and rather than used it to drive a compressor, used it to generate electricity, would the rules allow that extra electric energy to be returned into the KERS system?

I'm not suggesting force-feeding the engine as per either a supercharger or turbocharger, but I am suggesting putting all that wasted energy to use.

Thoughts?
