Default I just bought 2002 DS - how do I make it go faster?

I just bought a 2002 DS the Serial number is 7F0210. How do I make it go faster? I have read where you by a chip. I think mine is the IQ it has a Tow and run switch under the seat. Any help would be appreciated.

How fast does it go now? For me the fastest and easiest way was with a speed magnet install.

EZGO's have a "speed chip" . . . CC's do not . . . a CC IQ can be programmed to speed code 4 (about 19mph) by CC dealer at a cost of about $100 or so . . or you can install the aforementioned "magnet" . . . among other more expensive mods . . . how deep are your pockets? . . .

Look at your serial number again. If it's an IQ, it should read AQxxxx-xxxxxx.
The two numbers after the AQ is the year and the following two the month.
Do you have a rocker switch or a shift lever?

Jakesake27.......7Fxxxx means it is a silver CC reconditioned IQ cart. It is an IQ cart. I have a 7Axxxx cart it is also a Silver CC reconditioned cart. I don;t know what the difference between a 7A and a 7F is but they are both IQ carts.

. . . the 7A designation is for a reman 48v Golf Car . . . the 7F designation is for a reman 48v IQ . . . possibly the 7A designation was in place prior to the introduction of the IQ cart, and CC decided to start a new IQ specific designation 7F . . . Jakesnake's cart may have been reman'd just prior to the new designation . . .

Steve, my cart is not remanufactured, mine is AQxxxx.
But bills cart has been remanned...
I had never heard of a reman cart before, and I didn't know they changed the serial when they did it...

I drove it yesterday and it went 15 mph according to GPS
I will using this to play golf and roam the neighborhood. I just bought a Magnet from Amazon. Any other suggestions to get the speed up?
It also seems to be sluggish going up hills. The batteries are Aug 2010, Exide. Should I look at replacing them as well?
Thanks
Bill
