Personally I like the sound of a turbo blow off valve relieving pressure while making a 12k RPM shift and feeling the ass end of the car get squirly when it grabs the next gear...

but that's just me.

Since we're basically contemplating theoretical applications, if I were to do an EV 914 I'd go with an array of 4 electric motors. One per wheel, inboard, and tachometer per each. Not sure if I'd go brushed or brushless, that's still up in the air.

I'd go with a handful of capacitors, maybe 5 farad cap for each wheel.... for acceleration and surges

for the steady stream of power, I'd go withe one of the newly discovered (to me) subie boxer diesel engines attached to a generator unit instead of a transaxle.

Or something along those lines. I haven't given it too much thought lately. :-)
