You will need power supplies, regulators, logic circuits, Porbably some serious PWM capability to control the power and of course the motor and batteries. I picture a build like this being a never ending cycle of exploding components. This is the brainchild of VERY skilled electrical engineers. While getting tires mounted for Zcon, I had this doozy of a conversation with the mechanic... Tireguy: [looking at emblem] Is this a Twin Turbo? Me: Well, yea. Tireguy: Awesome! How much boost do you run? Me: 14-15 ish. Tireguy: Cool. On both? ROFLMFAO I'll be there in electronic format =).
