So now with a 980 motor one can get the speed boost upgrade?
And can I assume non LFP 2021 recent deliveries will just be 990?

I actually reached out to Ingenext about their Boost SR for our 21' Model 3 SR+ LFP 980 (that's a mouthful lol). I got a response back today saying that they're working on it

Haha. Same response I got for the 990 motor.I actually reached out to Ingenext about their Boost SR for our 21' Model 3 SR+ LFP 980 (that's a mouthful lol). I got a response back today saying that they're working on it
‘We’re on it…be patient!’
I actually just confirmed with ingenext that sadly they are NOT working on a boost for the 990 and that the response was a mistake :/
Confirmed my 2021 LFP SR+ has a 980.
I will tell you this about adding the ingenext module to the 2021, it is not a easy task.
Far different than the pre 2019 models. I have the bonus module off my 2018 Performance which will work on any model and does not
vin code when plugged in. I tried to install on my new 2021 and its no joke. The space up in there is so tightly cramped its nearly impossible to get the new modules plugged in. You would almost have to remove the pass seat and attempt to lay down to try and make it work.
I gave up and just figured id wait until the boost 50 comes out for the LFP folks instead of having to do this task twice.

You think maybe Tesla will give all the sr+ an acceleration boost come V11 or paid upgrade ?

Sadly 990 just got an update…they cannot and will not be working to that effect.
Only hope is Tesla decides to charge for a boost option one day. There is now no 4.x second M3. Either 3.1, 3.9 or 5.6.

Isn’t the SR+ 5.3? I’ve got a late 2020(Picked up a year ago to the day or close to……) and mine is a 990 motor as well. I’ll take a look at my MYSR and see if it’s a 980 or 990.
Nevermind, I see you’re from Canada and you guys do 0-62, rather than 0-60…

It’s 5.3 but I was getting 5.0-5.1 pretty consistently and now after dropping 7lbs each corner and lowering the suspension I’m consistently getting 4.8-4.85 0-60 on my 2021 sr+

Yes, there are reports and videos out there that shows people in low 5’s and high 4s. I have to say it feels much faster than 5.3.
SR+ LFP is heavier than the "normal" car, so 980 may be fitted as standard to ensure no drop in performance?
