I’m thinking we’ll never see an awd->p3d- at this point.
Fine Elon, I’ll do $5,000. Unleash my 980 motor.

Very nice of you...Anyone in the KW and surrounding area considering this, but wants to try it first, drop me a line.
This is the key!!! You sir, or ma’m know what you’re talking about.exactly what happens in the ice world. Those tune get expensive fast and you have to learn the car again to get the best out of it. It was like launch on the street vs launching on prepped track to totally different approaches. Good statementWith this upgrade a LR AWD can beat a M3P if you catch him sleeping at the light. Maybe lol.
For the people who complain the .5 upgrade is expensive,you are correct. Because going from 14.5 to 14 second's in an ICE car is expensive.
Once you start going faster,the more expensive it gets.
Every time you install a performance part you must re-tune to get the benefit from the part.
Each re-tune can cost from 300 to 500.
After installing each part you have to relearn your car again to be able lower your times.
This 2k update is great but... when I ordered my LR AWD I had the option of getting a "Unicorn" which was a LR AWD but with the speed of a Performance and it was only 2k to get it.. And now I'm kicking myself that I didn't.
Pulled the trigger as well. !!
I did a few runs before I updated, and a few immediately after the performance boost update.
Holy crap. !
The .5 second boost is a huge difference.
I felt a whole new level of nausea.
If you performance guys have .5 faster than this, that is insane.
Definitely worth the bucks. I can’t wait to play with this new boost. Ha Ha.
I am glad you are enjoying the additional poooowaaaahhhh. In the the M3P we have to practice jet fighter breathing techniques to keep from passing out from the extreme g-forces.
I have no doubt.
Joking aside, I actually felt quite queasy after a few tries.
You guys must have fighter pilot constitutions for sure.
Well you get use to it after a while hahahaI have no doubt.

That's not always true anymore, these days with turbo cars you can get an ECU flash/chip mod for something like $800-$1000 and gain 10-20% power increase pretty easily. For example this company offers a 25% increase in HP for the BMW M2 Competition as a simple ECU tune for $1k: M2 Competition Power Upgrades | Litchfield Motors
Curious if anyone has checked to see what impact 2,3, and 4 passengers in the model 3 has on the 0-60 times. ?
I’ve wondered if having passengers takes the times down very much.
I guess I have performance on my mind now.
I just upgraded to the performance boost, and Just when I thought this car couldn’t possibly be any more fun and amazing to drive, I now have this new insane boost !!
love it.
Americans or Canadians?
No we are just fatterWell, everyone knows Canadians are faster, so if someone has tested this with Americans, I’ll just assume it’s a little faster with Canadians in the car.
Interesting you dont get 3 options for acceleration - chill, standard sport but just chill and sport. thanks for screenshot.
That would be the ideal solution obviously. Standard was probably made for the LR to make it easier to get longer range than the P so ideal was if we could keep both modes. Was expecting a P3D- upgrade with Track mode so somewhat bummed out. Why the need to create yet another variant of the car? Then it would be an instant upgrade for me, now I will be sitting on the fence.
Next week, Elon will offer "Standard mode" for those who want 3 settings, only $1000.That would be the ideal solution obviously. Standard was probably made for the LR to make it easier to get longer range than the P so ideal was if we could keep both modes. Was expecting a P3D- upgrade with Track mode so somewhat bummed out.

Planning a trip to Burlington anytime soon?Anyone in the KW and surrounding area considering this, but wants to try it first, drop me a line.
That’s how I felt. I didn’t even know about the unicorn until right before I took delivery. I got this upgrade and I’m happy with it and after seeing the real world numbers I’m even happier
Then don’t buy it and stop complaining about what others want. It doesn't void the warranty. Personally I would much rather see Tesla put their effort to things like acceleration boost rather than video games, karaoke, farts, and fireplaces.
I had a chance to run next to a runway at a local airport. My god, the speed boost is real. My eyes went to the back of my head and got light headed.
During my test drives with Performance Model3s were on public roads so I never felt like this before. No doubt that may be faster but the AWD+ is very fast too. I’m loving it now.
interested in seeing a race between the two.
