Default 98 CC FE290, Power upgrades and exhaust sound

I'm thinking of buying a 98 CC with an FE290.
I have always had electric carts but thinking of adding this gasser to the mix.
It will be for hunting so here are my concerns;
Sound-is there an exhasut that will make the cart alot quieter?
Power- looking to get 18-20mph on rolling to hilly terrain and would like to have good torque similar to an electric cart

What would be your suggestions and any input from those that have both electric and gas on what the differences/pros/cons of one over the other.

thanks for the input

Don't know of an exhaust that will make it quieter. But yes you should be able to easily get 18-20mph on decently hilly terrain with the stock motor.

I have had both on my deer lease. I loved the electric for the power, no smell and it was quiet. But I also love my gas. especially when it comes to mud and water and no dang batterys to mess with. I use stay build and I only fill the gas tank once a year. Never had any problems with starting. It can sit for two months and bust right off. The gas carts do have a lot of power just not as much from a dead start. You can add a torque spring to the driven clutch. The gas carts arnt very load at all. probably not much loader than an electric.
