I might go $3k for a full P unlock.
$2k for just boost is too much, IMHO.
I'm hoping that now that the available performance has been revealed by the hack(and Tesla is having trouble building cars!), they'll be more likely to accept my $3k. If not, that's cool too. I can find other things to do with $2k.

no. not really. Once can be done via plugging in a device. A the other needs extended time with the vehicle. Eg. one can be done in 5 seconds, the other takes 30 minutes or more.
If I bought a salvage title M3 I would 100% buy this mod. The problem is I won't ever do that because the salvage prices are ridiculously high because there is such a high demand for parts. I think this mod is really intended for salvage title cars that don't have warranties or Tesla fast charging anyways.

Silly wabbits. If you can afford to brick a $50k car, or take part in testing the moods and muscles of The Company's legal dept, you can afford a proper factory P, or a roadster.

The new model S looks to be very fast.
Do you need 4000hp in you car to go the corner store,
well there is an electric dragster out there.
Anyone that has done performance upgrades will
tell you there is no such thing as a 2k upgrade.
It is a very fun process of spending tons of money
and say I did it. Just look around here , tires , springs,
and maybe next a new converter, battery, new electronics.
If you race, fine, otherwise it is a rabbit hole.

Is this a really long haiku?
Does it though? You don't have to have updates if you don't want them.
You're still adding performance to a car, and by your logic, have made it unsafe. There are plenty of tunes out there that add 20 to 100hp on stock turbo charged vehicles. Nothing more than plugging in a device now-a-days... COBB Tuning ring a bell? How about SCT, Superchips, or Diablosport? Hell, there were even some tunes that would add well over 100hp on light/medium-duty diesel pickup trucks, like Bully Dog, or Edge.

The "so what" is that the exact same hardware is covered under the same warranty in the higher performing version of the vehicle.

If Tesla doesn’t maintain and update the software, they can’t really ensure the car is safe, since it runs on software.
I think you do have to update the car, or Tesla won’t be responsible for the car. If they aren’t responsible for it, they separate it from the fleet.
I think there are too many folks with control issues.
Let the software flow free, relax, and let go.
Not all AWD cars have the same hardware as performance Model 3s. (I would even go as far as to say most don't.)

...that they charged more money for, to cover higher expected warranty costs.
Sure- as long as you're ok not getting ANY updates. Meaning AP and FSD never improve on your car. Neither do any of the other features they've added, or improved on, via SW updates.
Also you might lose use/access to the Tesla Mobile App & associated features, voice commands, streaming media content, and other connectivity dependent features.
All of which were listed as things you might lose if you refuse to update your car when early S owners recently were offered an "Update or else" situation.

While I highly appreciate software updates and enhancements - unless you are using AP/FSD they shouldn't be considered a total necessity in order for the car to maintain functionality and integrity of safety, and even then FSD isn't necessarily up to par on being safe for many situations. The car is already the safest in the world straight out of the factory. If there are safety issues, that's what safety recalls are for. I do think it'd be nice if Tesla provided some kind of option to manually download updates and install them standalone, kind of in the same fashion with how you flash mobo's with a new BIOS, which happens to always be available with whatever the latest version is online.
Also don't think I understand about control issues. People just want to mod their cars but there are just a few caveats to doing so.
