Need more speed!!

turbojeep

So I've been online pretty much all day and my head is spinning. Sooooo many options of things out there. I have a 2011 CC Precedent that's lifted with 22" tires. My neighborhood where I primarily drive is a 25mph. speed limit. I currently run 17mph according to the speed limit sign radar thingy. I would like to get my cart up to 25mph at least--- 30mph preferable.

I've been looking at 7144 motors and DCX400's, 500's, 600's…. talked to a high school buddy who owns a custom cart shop down south and he told me about an AC conversion….. then I see Plumb Quick motors now. Urrrrgh. Lol.

Basically this cart will always see street use and be used at the drag strip as a pit car. I live in Florida and it's flat as all get out here. Speed is what I need. The cart has 6 new 8V Powertron P8000 batteries which I've read on here are a "private label" Trojan. Has this been officially verified yet? I was going to replace them with Trojan's and sell the Powertrons to recoup some, but, if there is no need then I won't.

I've heard not to do gears with the larger tires that it will kill motors prematurely. Any truth to this? Thanks in advance for all answers.

Have you modified your cart yet for more speed. I just purchased a 2011 CC and am thinking of speeding it up also. Any advice? I see that you live in Ponte Vedra. Im in Jacksonville. Mandarin area.

No problem, sorry it took so long.

Is your cart an IQ? You can tell by the serial number- it will begin in PQ.
If so, you should be getting in the low 20s with speed code 4, everything stock.

Is your cart all stock? Code 4 is the fastest it will go stock (19.6 mph).

hi, not really sure about the club, but on my g16 Yamaha, there is a Governor , it has a adjusting nut,, on top of the trans. , if you turn it in all the way with large tires you get around 25mph.. i have a few threads left and it runs about 22mph,, but i run about 15 mph most of the time anyway;; it seems the faster i get it to go the slower i drive it,, i am a little confused, is your cart gas or electric? if its electric i really cant help''

It's electric

Mine is a 2011 electric CC. Im thinking about putting in a Plum Quick Bandit motor. Currently, I have a speed code 4. Everything else is stock, including the wheels and tires. Im thinking about putting on some 12" wheels and low profile tires.

Based on what I've seen on here, the Bandit is a great choice. That will get you to the mid 20s all else stock.
