Damn - you went all the way -- that is a huge drop in unsprung weight, you will definitely notice it!

6 lbs per corner is nice drop and the new rubber makes all the difference.... very nice setup.... I believe those tires are lighter than the stock 18's which are 25 lbs. The Pilot Sport 4S weight in 19 is 24.8 lbs front and 28.6 lbs rear (a lot heavier than I thought). In the 18 inch size its 23.5 lbs for the Pilot Sport 4S (I remember looking this up before)
Source: Michelin Pilot Sport 4S Tires
The stock 235/45R18 Michelin Primacy MXM4 has a diameter of 26.3", a width of 9.3", mounts on a 18" rim and has 790 revolutions per mile. It weighs 25 lbs, has a max load of 1653 lbs, a maximum air pressure of 50 psi, a tread depth of 8/32" and should be used on a rim width of 7.5-9".

Thanks is what I always planned to do. It's why I didn't want PUP in the first place. Always figured I could put better parts for cheaper. After this I want to install the sport coilovers but it's going to be a while. Need to replenish the coffers.

Actually the tires I have are the 235/40/19 and 255/35/19 which are 24.8 and 23.8lbs respectively. So they are a little lighter in the back but the same up front.
The 0-60 was updated to 3.3 0-60 from 3.5 seconds.
Tesla starts advertising quicker 0-60 mph acceleration for Model 3 Performance
I am saying that the 0-60 time on our cars non PUP and PUP will drop from 3.3 sec to 3.2 sec.
Yeah, I think I was replying to something you had quoted (top speed only for PUO), not you, but I quoted the wrong thing. Oops.

I have not, but I’m discovering “The Seat Paradox”; in that the edge of my seat has become infinite in distance while simultaneously not existing.

Not yet. I plan on connecting the car to wifi all day tomorrow in hopes of downloading something.

Don't hold your breath. I've had my car connected to Wifi everyday for the past 5 months and no update. Still stuck on v2018.50.6

That's pretty amazing since 5 months is longer than 50.6 has existed.... what gauge wire did you use to connect the flux capacitor in your model 3?

Happy to report that Track Mode has arrived to the P3D-. I got it today with v2019.5.15
I put it to the test in some extreme mountain conditions. At first I was somewhat cautious thinking that it might let the tail slide more than I have been accustomed to but as I gained more confidence in its abilities I think it actually handles better than before (very little slide). Regen is indeed more powerful. And the dreaded acceleration limitation dots I use to get are a thing of the past. I could not get any even at 42% SOC, and I tried. The cooling fan is super loud so you can tell it's working hard.
