I thought I’d come back and spam you all from the other side as I wait for TJ to cross the finish line. Yesterday I got the Boost50, for the new Ryzen chip, that just dropped from Ingenext. Do so at your own peril, as there are horror stories of how Tesla can take any issue on your car and point to an aftermarket part and not cover the issue under warranty. That said, I like to roll them dice from time to time and wanted drift mode, so my decision was made. Like the Accel Boost it takes your 0-60 time to 3.7. In fact this morning on the country roads of AZ I hit 3.68. Just incredible!
Off the trailer a 4.2 0-60 makes you faster than 90 percent of the cars out there, but I found myself wanting a little more pep from 60-100 (just so I can make a quick pass and get back in my lane at the speed limit). This throws you back in your chair off the start, but in online comparisons also matched the acceleration curve of a Performance from 30-100. To me it was a no brainer to punt on the Performance with less range and worse ride, and go with the Boost later. Happy to answer any questions as you consider.
Hang in there brothers and sisters. Just two weeks on the other side of purgatory, and I only look back with fond memories of my time participating in this gaggle of future owners. One day you will open up the app, and there will be a VIN, later that day will be a text, finally the call will come, and then a date with joy. Just a little bit longer.
