Good god, that must be one hell of a polarizer. I'm under the opinion most will bring your exposure down by at the very most one stop. Most good filters 1/3 or 1/2 of a stop.
I could be wrong however that is my knowledge.

That depends on who manufactured it. I have found over the years that my Hoya filters were the darkest, and that my Nikon is the lightest. The Nikon is in that 1/3 range at maximum, the Hoya is about 1 full stop, and my B+W is in the middle. Then I am also willing to bet they can in the same brand depending on the run, or lot.

This is especially true if you are using the popup flash on your camera. Just do an experiment sometime, and see the difference. It will still make the colors pop a little more as it does with sun light. For your camera, and lens light is light no matter if it is natural, or artificial, the image sensor sees it the same.
