Acceleration Boost and towing GVWR?

GVWR is the maximum weight it is rated for including payload. GVWR is not the tow rating. The 20” wheels are limited to towing up to 2300lbs because the tires are Goodyear EAGLE F1 ASYMMETRIC 5 P255/40R20 101W

101 is the load rating index which puts it at a 1819 lbs max per tire vs the 104 load index that come with the 19” and 21” wheels on the model y. 104 load index is 1984 lbs per tire.

Increased torque and horsepower will not allow you to tow safety. You will need to replace those tires to one with a higher load index to tow up to the 3500lbs rating.
