Default 2001.5+ ezgo torque

I just installed a 5" lift with 22x11-10 A/T on a 2001.5 ezgo txt gas. What is the best way to increase torque. This is my first cart but have ridden a few others before. Two in particular were at a previous job. They were almost identical to what I have but had the power. I have plenty of speed for what I need to do with it but no low end torque. I didn't have much before the lift so maybe just some tuning? I don't need anything extreme but definitely could stand to use more power. Looking for something that is low cost but will still be a noticeable difference. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Also as it is a 2001 check the valve clearance. http://www.buggiesgonewild.com/ezgo-...djustment.html

Thanks guys! I'll give the shorter belt a try and if not much response then dig deeper.

I don't think the motor got tired in one day or the belt went bad in one day. Did you get the belt wet?

So going with a shorter belt will help me go through sand better and also pull the jetski trailer better

Shorter belt and 28 degree clutch makes a big difference in torque and pulling
