I just put a Curtis 350 amp controller on my cart. Very little if any difference in run time. Think of it like having a larger carburetor on a car. As long as you keep you foot out of it, there want be much difference. I'm sure if I went hill climbing I could climb faster and go up steeper hills. Playing golf which is what I do it holds speed better going up hills on the golf course, some of my golfing friends are just FAT. and it really helps.

MR GOLF, with a Curtis 350 Amp controller, 4 gauge welding cables,PQ Bandit motor what kind of speed do you get?

Solid 25 mph level ground. Just keeps going faster down hill. On a hill I tested stock cart on before any mods, I got 11 mph. Now I get 16 mph.

That is with stock size wheels 17.5 in to top of tire from ground.

thank you I think that's the direction I'll head in. I'm going to order the curtis 350 amp and new cables today and the motor next month!
