The chassis, I believe, can. The components required to put that power on the ground, can't.

Axles and diff subjected to four times the power will be breaking. The e.Kanoo swap broke an axle at under 500whp. FullBlown teamed up with Drive Shaft Shop and already made a rear diff/axle conversion w/ driveshaft. The swap is perceived to cost in excess of $2-3k, though.

I don't know what our stock hubs are capable of either. I was looking into the HardRace/Megan hub swap but I discarded that a few weeks ago.
