Axe4844
Can I put a AXE4844 controller in a 99 EZGO Series cart without upgrading everything? I dont want to smoke anything but funds are limited and I found the controller locally at a real good price. I was going to add this and 4g wires. Would this help in the torque/speed department?

Yes, it will help with torque, but no speed gain will happen on a series cart with a controller upgrade. I ran that controller with only the 4g welding wire upgrade for a few years when I first started building my cart.

It will increase torque significantly but not speed in a series cart.

Re: Axe4844
So, realistically speaking, how much seat of the pant difference would i get with controller and wires? Also, I have about 60 feet of 2 and 4 g welding cable. What would stop me from making the cables? Any idea what the lengths are for the 13 pcs. kit?

Re: Axe4844
Take your old cables off one by one and remake and replace them . Well? 275 amps to 400 amps. You do the math.

Cables are easy to solder up and heatshrink, but scottyb offers a killer package if soldering is not your thing. You will feel the difference with the new controller, no doubt about it. Plus, the cart will be THAT MUCH CLOSER to a 48v conversion.

Re: Axe4844
Honestly, the time and frustration that goes into DIY cables is not worth it. IMHO get with Scottyb and just buy his kit.
