Q: How do Unplugged Performance stainless steel brake lines improve braking performance?
Unplugged Performance stainless steel brake lines improve braking performance across all Tesla models by eliminating the flex found in factory rubber lines, resulting in a firmer, more responsive brake pedal feel. Under hard braking, rubber lines can expand slightly due to pressure and heat, causing a soft or “spongy” pedal sensation. Our stainless steel braided lines maintain their structure under pressure, ensuring consistent hydraulic force reaches the calipers, improving pedal feedback and braking precision. This upgrade is especially beneficial during spirited driving, towing, or track use—where braking consistency and confidence are critical. Designed specifically for each Tesla model, our lines are DOT-compliant, corrosion-resistant, and compatible with factory ABS and stability systems. Whether you drive a Model S, 3, X, Y, or Cybertruck, this is a simple, cost-effective upgrade that enhances safety and control without compromising daily drivability. It’s an ideal complement to upgraded pads, rotors, or calipers.

We got these (BBK) installed on our S Plaid was the best think we could have upgraded first. They feel so great when stopping on the big end on the tracks, So much light weight as well from the factory stock brakes.

This has been the most important upgrade I’ve made to my car besides the UP carbon ceramic brakes. The adjustability of these suspension parts is second to none. UP does amazing R&D to come up with the best solutions for Teslas, and this product is no exception. Born from race tech they use on...

Nice looking badge to represent the 7k I spent on the Cybrhex wheels. As a matter of fact I need another!

Getting these installed along with the moderate version of the dual rate springs on my Model 3! Very excited and I cannot wait to see the new look and feel the significant difference.

This brace really tightens up the car. It also got rid of some of the rattles I had coming from the rear seat. Little tough to get in and out, but really an awesome upgrade

What a difference this sway bar made to my Model S Plaid. This helps correct the body roll the car has from the factory. I have much more confidence taking turns at a higher speed, and freeway on-ramps have become extremely fun. I would highly recommend upgrading your sway bar in the Model S!

Easy to install. I did the 15/20 F/R. I like it. Not to aggressive but enough to stand out. No pun intended. Feels a little more stable. Can’t wait for the lowering springs to get here. Another great product from UP. ps the packaging is also done well.

Exactly what I wanted. Much better appearance. Beautiful stance. Both stiffer in the corners and smoother on the regular road imperfections. Feels more tuned and prepared. Will recommend to all my Tesla owning friends.

I purchased a set of both Titanium and Black UP emblems. The emblems are well designed, looks great and perfect on the car. Highly recommended and will definitely purchase more soon.

These are exactly what I was expecting. I waited over a year for them. Pandemic backorders and all. It took me about 6 hours to install with help from a friend. The fronts were the worst part. You have to have the spring compressors mounted just right and really compress them a lot to assemble the...
