What to expect with a PQ Executioner motor?

jonr3 · 10-02-2018, 09:08 AM

I think I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on a PQ Executioner for my '14 Precedent (2ga. cables, XCT500 controller, 400A solenoid, new T875 batteries, 22" tires).

Speed? I've read where the top speed will probably get me in the neighborhood of 35 mph on flat ground with my current setup. Is that a fair estimate?

Torque? Will there be any additional torque for mild/medium hills, or will it still drop down to a crawl?

Most of my driving is on fairly flat surfaces with some mild/medium hills. I am looking for the 30-35 mph range to be able to keep up with traffic. Any comments, reviews, thoughts, or possible other motor suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

With 12.3:1 gears and a 48v pack, you will never see 35. 29-31mph is probably more realistic. Here is the speed calculator http://www.buggiesgonewild.com/speed-calculator.php

Look at my signature, I have 22's, a 58v lithium pack (240 pounds lighter then you battery pack), XCT 500 with an Executioner and run 38mph with a Performance Map.

One thing I will tell you is it almost snapped my neck off the day I drove it out the garage. I literally pulled the gates off of hell and brought them back cause the Devil made me do it. I have since tuned the throttle down so it was not so jerky. I have ran a lot of motors through my days, not NOTHING has ever been close to what I have with this Executioner.....

Note- It is NOT a torque motor for pulling or loping (slow hilly driving off roads), but is is a substantial torque increase over stock. I would say ~25% or so. When you take it out the big purple box and place it next to your rinky-dink OEM motor, you will see what I describing...

That all sounds pretty good to me - I can live with 30 mph and any increase in torque is a bonus. I installed the FNKS selector with my Alltrax so I can have a couple of "safe" modes for the wife and kids and a "oh sh*t" mode for me. Thanks!

I have a PQ Executioner with an alltrax 500, 2ga cables, 2 year old Trojan Ranger 160 batteries and a 400a solenoid on my cart, listed below. On flat land gets up to 33 with 30-31 pretty consistent. No complaints here.

I've got a good 4 plus years on a PQ Executioner motor with a 500 amp Curtis controller. My speed with fresh batteries was a solid 30 to 33 mph and while I would lose some speed on hills it was never a big deal at all.

Thanks all! You sold me... I just ordered one today and am looking forward to it.

You will not be disappointed!

I realize this thread is old but what kind of range should one expect with new Trojans and this setup cruising at 28- top speed? Thanks.

Less than 10 miles
