I think really it was mostly a combination of the PlumQuick motor and the 2ga cables. I think my old 6ga wires were in bad shape and the motor just wasn't getting enough amperage to overcome normal rolling resistance because 15mph (actually I think it was just over 14 if I recall correctly) was the best I got on level ground with the bigger tires. I had installed the 22" wheels previous to the electrical upgrades.

As expected, the torque increase has been by far the biggest improvement with the new controller, wires, solenoid and HD F/R switch. I can carry four people around with no effort at all.

My apologies to the OP, didn't mean to hijack the thread.

Not hijacking at all!! This is the input I want!!

Also I forgot to mention to check your front end alignment and tire pressure. I think that it helped my cart. With my PQ motor. 2# wires, 400a solenoid. and 50lb of air in my tires. 12" Rims with street tires and good alignment I run 17mph on flat ground. Takes a while but I get there.
