Why do you need that much power? You'd do better making sure you've got a good antenna system sorted before ramping up the power. 25W into a good antenna system will outdo 100W into a piss poor one any day of the week.
Even 100W mobile is overkill, any more than that definitely is.
10W AM and 25W SSB is plenty enough to do 30-40 miles which is about the limit of groundwave on 11m. If you live in a hilly area and the station you're wanting to contact is the other side of the hill, even 1000W isn't going to help you. DXing mobile I've done half way around the world with 100W with no problem.
