easy upgrades

rookie

hello all
...new to forum AND elec carts.....I just purchased a 1998 48v club car and was wondering of easy upgrades for more speed/torque other than replacing motor

Is upsizing cables from 6ga to 4ga worth anything?

Cart goes 11 mph on flat ground....is this avg?

Thanks

BGW

welcome, new myself and going through the same thing, I myself am going to start with all new 4 gauge wires forsure and debating on wether to go with bigger amp controller first or getting Andrea with emp on a motor, but will eventually end up with wires, controller and motor, good luck and I am sure someone on here will be glad to point you in the right direction

11mph is kind of slow maybe a new contoller lift kit and bigger tires should get you somewhere

4 "gage" cable will not give you more top speed....you might see a small speed increase going up an incline. What they will do is allow the motor, controller and everything to get the power it needs. Small, dirty, nasty cables will generate heat in the connections, heat is wasted power that could be going to your motor. The only way to get more speed is to up the voltage, gears, larger tires or a higher RPM motor.

Spoke with Andrea at EMP about there motors, that is the way I am going for sure, motor(EMP) and wires, then lift, getting the two speed set-up, let you know how it turns out.
