I semi checked this:
A Optima battery will hold a 13+ volt charge for upwards of 15 minutes. We run 4cyl race cars with NO alternator and Optima's (or whatever racing battery we decide) I'm pretty sure Jake tested this on the dyno.. Lose the fan belt on your stock 2.0 You can imediately feel the difference when it happens. B |

I'm sure not having to TURN the alternator would make a difference in HP output. I would respectively suggest that reduced load or for that matter no load on the alternator would make for a marginally insignificant effect to HP output.
