2013 Model S P85 with MCU2. Is 320kw Max Correct?

I have looked for this and cannot find an answer anywhere? Ever since I received the MCU2 upgrade on my 2013 Model S P85 the max KW on the dash is 320KW. Before the upgrade I could have sworn it was at least 350-360KW max? The car is not in valet mode and has about 62k on the odometer. Any ideas? Thank you

I own a P85+ (same motor) with a MCU2. the dash is not very accurate, with scan my tesla I can see the max power at 353 kW (80% SOC). Note: the max power is limited by the battery, it depends of the SOC. The motor can deliver around 400 kW max

Thanks for the reply. Before, the gauge showed up to 375kw and the digital needle went up to around 360kw at full charge. Now, the “updated” Gauge look only shows 320kw with no number higher? Did they mess up somewhere?

I think it's more a matter of Tesla being vague on the values. They used to have multiple numbers around the energy dial, but these disappeared. The regen just shows 50. Now, this doesn't mean the gauge can't show more than those values, they are just points on the dial. With MCU-Z they removed the gauge completely and replaced it with a linear bar that has no numbers at all - similar to the 3/Y. You can see energy being used or regen, but there are no numbers for how much.
