I did all my battery jumpers and the main negative and positives (both sides of the solenoid). Used 2Ga wires.

The motor cables cannot be upgraded, they are welded to the windings in the motor, but, at least they are already 4g (iirc).

Yes, a little torque, but only if you upgrade all the 6g cables to 4g or larger.

Thank you sir! I have some left over 2ga from my car audio days, so this might be a cheap project for me

So, in reference to #4, solenoid to controller B+. I have a 3/4 inch wide flat bar made of copper or something that connects these terminals. Should I leave this bar there or replace it with a 2 awg cable? Not sure the 2 awg would be an upgrade. My cart is a 2014.
