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.

Worked great, much less brake fade throughout my runs and lets me have more confidence in my stopping power as the heat builds.

I really like how understated this lip is. It blends in perfectly with the existing bumper but you can still tell there is something unique about your car when it's installed. I have a grey model 3 and purchased the painted one. Although the site says it's not the exact same as the factory color, I...

This definitely helps cool down my drive unit quicker. I'm able to run a hot lap at the track, then a single cooldown lap to bring the drivetrain temperature back into the green. It was awesome seeing it cool down within a lap at Buttonwillow.

After lowering my Model 3 on coilovers I was having all kinds of clunking noises come from the front sway bars links. Initially, I purchased a different brand of adjustable links and they clunked no matter what I did (shortening, lengthening, removal and re-torqued them countless times), so I...

These brakes perform great and I should have upgraded to these a long time ago. Pedal travel with with the included brake lines are much improved as well.

I have tracked my m3p twice now at road America and a local track blackhawk farms. The power to pull the car out of corners make it pretty competitive in stock form. The number one complaint was body roll and poor weight transfer into corners. The competition sways eliminated all of those concerns....

Got the Street/Track version for my 2022 Performance 3 and couldn't be happier with them. I combined them with the Moderate Lowering Springs and this combo is perfect. The turn in is quicker and with the reduced body roll it makes the handling now better match the acceleration abilities of the 3. ...
