My setup keeps me very close to the 3C limitation at all times. My Soliton Jr controller maxes out at 600 amps. It would be fun to be able to dump 1000 amps for a short period of time. Most cells have a burst rating at 10C for 10 to 15 seconds. I'm finding that my car is very drivable when staying under 500 battery amps. I think if you look for a controller that can deliver 1000 amps you can have some fun, but most of the time you'll be staying under the 3C limit. Higher voltage will allow for you to deliver higher amps at higher RPMs.
