FYI: As mentioned previously, picked up my upgraded p85d today. It feels much better at 30-50 and 50-70. 0-30 feels about the same, though it really wants to pull much harder and longer.
Hopefully not breaking cross-thread etiquette, though initial data being posted on LolaChampCar's CAN thread for some pre/post upgrade comparisons from generous loan of their CAN logger: http://www.teslamotorsclub.com/show...lus-Graphing?p=1385060&viewfull=1#post1385060

Finally, scheduled my upgrade for March 15th at the Dania Beach Service Center in South Florida. Not sure how many they have done already, not sure what number I was on the list but am happy to finally have a confirmed date.
in my case (and I am sure this is not unique), I'm not automatically logged in when reading the forums and only log in to post. Therefore, until I log in, I'm a "guest". This must explain the observation.

Ludicrous upgrade done. Picked up the car over lunch. Great service from the Montreal SC. Took a day and a half. Proceeding with the software update seemed to have been the difference between the good case scenario of one day and the actual day and a half.
Unfortunately, snowing pretty hard today so I can't really play with my upgraded ride but I can share this photo!

I imagine though I'm quite pleased by how it looks. Pretty OCD about my car's aesthetics and I gotta say, I was worried how it would look. Looks factory-done to me. Interestingly that part is called P90D Chrome Bar Badge on the invoice.
I would be too. Yours *looks* like where it should be. I've seen ones that go off to the left by about a millimeter and don't quite line up with the vertical line of the P.

Yay - now take this down time to find that front motor RPM CAN id?
Seriously, congrats and good luck!

Mine is just over a millimeter down on right vs. left... I'm REALLY trying not to notice, though can't bring myself to post a picture

I put my own on. They were out of them when I had my car upgraded. I called several weeks after that to ask if they had them back in stock and they did. I went to pick one up and was told they were $8. I told them I'm pretty sure I already paid that
Bah, fortune favors the bold. Sometimes the greatest step is a leap of faith. And while it's a cliche that most cliches are true, like most cliches, that cliche is also untrue.

Hmm, I should order a second one put it on the car just to see how long it would take someone to notice.

Update from Nashville - Car went off-line some time yesterday, came back on-line early afternoon today. Software update to 2.12.45 at 2:30 or so. Around 5 pm they supercharged it and then I got an e-mail that they were having issues and will let me know tomorrow how things are progressing. All very polite and nice, we shall see tomorrow. Seems like it isn't that uncommon for this process to get a hitch or two.
