10 to 20 minutes fast charge to 80%. I think that's bullshit.

Why is it bullshit? Solid state batteries have better thermal stability than traditional lithium. The BMS allows higher current loads. That equals 1/6 the time.

Would have to be one hell of a charger and some big ass cables 

Lithium batteries can only take on current at a slow rate.  The little batteries from my RC planes don't like to be charged fast it shortens their life. Plus you have to pay big bucks for a high "C" rating which is how fast they can discharge.

That’s nonsense. Lithium batteries take more current than AGM or lead acid. One quality lifepo4 100ah can take 50amps of charge or more depending on what the BMS will allow. Try that with a AGM of similar size. They can also be fully discharged with no damage. AGM batteries are damaged if routinely discharged past 50%

Charge rate would be feasible to charge to 80 percent on current tech if the batter could take it.  EA system will deliver close to 350 kw if the car will take it and the charger isn’t malfunctioning which is all to frequent with non tesla chargers.  That is almost 6 kwh a minute.  10 minutes would be about 58 kwh….  20 minutes would be double that with current tech.  
 

but Toyota is so far behind, as there current EV can only fast charge a couple times in its life before toyota throttles the charging down to save the battery.  Toyota is all smoke and mirrors currently in the BEV realm and really really far behind which they may not be able to recover from.

Toyota is stronger overall than Tesla and will remain so. Their strategy is to diversify on power train technology. Hybrids, EV, ICE. They sell 10X the vehicles as Tesla. While Tesla remains strong as an energy company, they’re basically a boutique car company. Toyota sells vehicles that have the potential to last 30 years. Teslas are the bic lighters of the car industry. Electrified Chevys.

Yes but they operate in a very narrow range of voltage. The difference between full and empty in the cells I am using is only about 2 volts. Lithium ion batteries are ruined if drained below 2 volts or so with 4 volts being a full charge. AGM batteries are just lead acid batteries with a different type of acid and a lighter plate arrangement.

Why cann,t these electric vehicles have their own on board self charging systems ?

What the fuck would be the benefit of that? You still have to plug it in to something capable of supplying a large amount of electricity. Carrying an extra 1000 lbs around for the life of the car for no reason would really impact the performance.

Similar to flashing a turbo sled and leaving the stock clutching?

Well if the tune is just moving the powerband up in RPM it wouldn't be perfect but definitely not hurt you that much.  Even if just improving over-rev then stock clutching might produce higher top speeds. 

Stock 998T's don't boost that much down low from the factory.   Some tunes increase boost at the same RPM of the stock sleds. 

Piping sleds that raise the powerband can need lighter weights in the primary.  Back in the day some pipe mfg's would brag about higher HP numbers when all they were doing was moving the powerband up to a higher RPM where the stock sled dropped off.

He’s dumb as fuck and didn’t understand a word you just typed.

Boosted Sidewinders can't handle too low of RPM.....they are constantly into the det sensor even on C16.   Been there done that with my 4 arm STM.  Never felt something pull so hard though.

Well, if they had adequate self charging systems, you wouldn,t have to plug them in.
