Default I just picked up an 06 CC DS -- increase speed?

I recently picked up a 2006 DS IQ (4-12v) and I'm curious what is the best bang for your $$ when wanting to increase the top speed by a little? I believe it is currently set at Stage 3 as it cruises in the 15mph range. I'm not looking for anything crazy as I plan to use it around our property, but 20mph would be nice when needed.

Does stepping it up to the factory "stage 4" setting hurt the low-end torque?


It already has a 6" lift and 22" tires.

Thanks!

Depending on what your CC dealer in your area charges for the Stage 4 upgrade, a Speedy Link or similar product is what you might want to consider.

The cheapest I could find in my area for a stage 4 upgrade was $150 and I had to rent a trailer to drop off and pick up. That would be another $60 for a a total of $210 for CC to do it.

Speedy link was $140 and they got it to you in about a week. I started going 13 mph when I first got the cart, and now I top off between 21-22 by myself. All stock cart

Good Luck!

thanks. Is the speedy link basically the "plug and play" that overrides the factory stage system?

But that wouldn't be the cheapest route to achieve 20mph...

True, but I know once he gets to 19 he will want more so he might as well go big now.
