I know this isn't exactly ecomodding, but it does show some of the great potential of electric drives.
Electric race car goes from 0 to 62 mph in less than 2 seconds, sets world record - eeDesignIt.com
In the second video some of the technical highlights are explained.
check out the soooooper light motors (shown at 4:30)
- 50 HP, 3.4 KG

- 200HP total with AWD with torque vectoring and traction control
- about 30% regen braking
Other cool stuff:
- controlled dampers with variable viscosity damping fluid
- adjustable downforce/drag aerodynamics
I'd love to see how that car does on some racetrack, and compare it to gas-powered car
