You first have to define what you call "performance". Is it increased speed? Increased hill climbing ability? Increased range? You can get one and maybe two. Expect to spend close to $2000.00.

I have a '92 Marathon and that is about what I have spent to get from 10 mph to 17 mph and better hill climbing.

You can change the controller out to a higher amp unit. Stock controller is 275A. Upgrading to 300-400A aftermarket will get better torque performance but not much speed. Some aftermarket controllers allow use over a wide range of voltages as well for future voltage upgrades.
