So I've been lurking and reading and still have some questions regarding the Model 3 Performance. If I'm wrong in any of the below let me know.
1. 2021 M3P with 20 wheels appears to be a consistent 11.6 - 11.8 / 115-117 vehicle regardless of condition other than level of battery charge.
2. Acceleration is the same whether you're level or uphill (indicating some software code is ensuring power to the wheels is adjusted accordingly).
3. There are no known performance specific power mods for the M3P. No after market tune, no aftermarket electric motor, etc..
So my question is what can be done to make a 2021 M3P accelerate quicker to run a faster quarter mile? There doesn't seem to be a consistent answer regarding:
- Wheel sizes and brands. Sure a stickier tire will hold grip but is there a known combo of wheel size/brand that actually results in quicker acceleration and faster quarter mile? If so which size / brand?
- The amount of "reasonable" weight reduction that actually makes a difference.
My question is specific to the 2021+ model and not the prior year models.
