I put down my deposit day one based on the assumptions/claims at that time.
The problem I see now is that I still don't know if this is going to give me what I want. I need to see comparisons b/w a stock P85D and an upgraded car on things like 30-50/50-70/70-90/30-70 etc. Whatever brackets people post will be fine, but I want to see how this upgrade impacts passing power.
It bums me out a bit that I had to plunk down $500 to reserve something that isn't fully documented but whatever. At this point I'll wait and see what early Freemont upgrades generate. If I lose $500 so be it.
A side note - what's happening here isn't really all that different to the experience I had with chipping my 535i. I was an early adopter of that upgrade and only had dyno results from Dinan to go on. I had to take the rest on faith based on what I figured those numbers would generate in terms of real world experience.
Finally - one thing I have to give Tesla is that when the dust settles I think most of us are happy with the results of whatever they do. The process they put us through is fairly chaotic, but the results are good. AP is a perfect example - it was worth the wait, performs as good or better than promised and certainly pushes the envelope on changing the game. Ludicrous will probably be great too - again however we have to endure this uncertainty while we wait for Tesla to get the ducks in a row.
