How To Make Electric Golf Cart Faster | Plum Quick Bandit Speed Upgrade | 2014 Club Car Precedent

[@TheYodadude]

Thanks for your videos. Just installed my Bandit upgrade today and went from 19 mph to 30 mph on my CC Precedent. Very happy with the speed and acceleration for the money spent. Thanks again and keep posting videos. Also I like to mark the mounting bolt holes on the motor with a black marker to make it easier to align for putting the bolts in.

Billy Hale I second this statement. I was looking at reprogramming or buying a new motor, but bought a $15 magnet to try that first. Top speed increased from 17 to 23 on the flats, and I can hit 31 down a hill. Lifted with bigger tires. A magnet should be everyone’s first mod if looking for speed.

So question. I have a 2004 ezgo txt series golf cart that does not have a run tow switch. I have learned for some reason Ezgo did not equip all carts with run tow switches. My cart also has the flip lever forward reverse switch, not the three position toggle switch. My town as of yet does not allow street use of golf carts , however they do allow LSV's. My cart already has almost everything to make it an LSV but by there requirements for LSV it has to do 20mph and not more then 25mph. My cart currently does about 13 to 14mph so can I put a plum quick motor on a 36volt cart? Also does plum quick have a motor that will do this and also increase my torque? I ask about increasing my torque because we also use the cart at campground to pull a tag along 4 seater trailer made from a 1991 club car ds frame and rear axle and main body. I want to make sure if I'm spending the on a new motor that it will be able to handle pulling the tag along trailer along with the weight of up to 8 adults total without ruining or overheating the new motor.. And yes there are some hills in the campground roads to pull but nothing major. Any help or advice on this would be greatly appreciated.

[@Fentertainment]

What you have is called a series cart. The series carts have the lever under the legs. Now you can still do a navitas ac kit but you will need to change the harness out on the cart as well as purchase a few parts. The whole lsv thing is something that you have to do and apply for, I think here I can get a cart registered for around $799 after I get everything for it. On a series cart like you have a controller will only give you more torque but a motor will give you speed. Yes you can get a motor from them to speed up the cart however most of the time they require you to have a good battery pack or lithium and a aftermarket controller. If you are going to be pulling a trailer with more adults then I would get a torque motor. I would also get an aftermarket controller to deliver the amperage needed to haul that load.

@JoelBack is right, just the motor. However the next video in the series we lifted it with wheels and gained 4mph.

[@thechum9653]

Electric wont have a governor. But if urs is gas, remove the case on back of cart. On the transaxle there is a linkage arm on left side, loosen the nut the the linkage and theres a “stud” thats in the linkage. Put a small flat tip screwdriver or pick or something in the whole in the stud. Turn it one way, itll make cart slower. Turn it the other way itll make it faster. Turn to desired speed (its super touchy) and then tighen the governor arm back up.

Factory Speed code 2 in the Controller is 11mph. Try a ClubCar or good cart dealer. They can reprogram your cart to speed code 4 (19 mph on stock tires, bigger tires will increase to 21mph or so) in 10 mins, you have to buy the program for each cart (by Serial #) . Usually anywhere from $80-$125 depending on the 'Stealer'....lol. Speed Magnet will just eliminate the regen or engine braking, and speed it up some, but not what you really want. Best,safest,easiest and cheapest way to speed up a ClubCar . If you REALLY need more Torque and Power try carts unlimited, ScottyB for an Alltrax XCT400 Controller and really unleash it. I'm getting way more torque and 27mph on a 20" Tire. I've tried all the 'Tricks' out there, and these are your Best bets, the rest is all Fkn Fluff... You Get what you pay for.
