Default Jakes Power Kit - G1

I have a G-1 with a lift and 22" tires and 12" rims...not the best in the hills now. Just wondering if anyone has installed a Jakes Power Kit on their cart. Does it make any difference?

Here is the link to the one I was looking into...
http://www.groovycarts.com/yadrclpokit.html

Any advice would be great, thanks!

Welcome to BGW!

I've installed the power kit on G2/G9 Yamaha's and the kit is great. Added lots of low end torque.

Buy from a site sponsor and save some money> http://www.jakesliftkits.com/product...20YA0%204000DX

Check with Jake's on that kit. States G2-G22, Not sure if it will work on a G1
