Probably about the same, actually. The technology for bass guitar pickups and Electric Guitar pickups are very similar, with only slight differences. Still, you're going to sound better on a guitar with a guitar pickup.

In a certain way yes. You can buy pitch lowering pedals that will drop the note the guitar is playing so if you set this to one octave it will sound like a bass, however it doesn't sound exactly the same only the pitch will be the same. You could also tune down an octave, this would impair playability of the guitar as the strings would be extremely loose, but on a baritone guitar with thick strings it is possible.

What hardstyle song has the hardest bass?

Almost every hardstyle track has a decent bass kick. So the loudness of the bass will depend more on how the frequencies are equalized, then on the song itself. With an equalizer, you can make the low frequencies of sound (the bass) sound louder, so this way you can make the bass harder. When you do this, it's important to have a good sound system that can handle more electrical power. Small computer boxes will make cracking sounds when they have to play a hard bass.
