I am new to Electric but am interested in the VHDL portion.  I have read the
manual and it appears that there are a few basic components that need to be
built to then use the VHDL compiler.  My question is can I expand this
library to more complex components?

I would like to use this to implement a system on a chip that I have running
in an FPGA, but have no experience in using electric to actually design a
chip.  Does all the VHDL code need to be written at the flip flop level or
can a higher level of abstraction be used?  If I make a ram array, can it be
instantiated in the VHDL?

You can extend the VHDL libraries, but it might require some source-code hacking. Also, the VHDL compiler is strictly "structural" (i.e. components and connections) and not "behavioral" (higher-level expressions are not understood).
