Q: What are the performance advantages of Unplugged Performance Model S Plaid Big Brake Kits?

Unplugged Performance big brake kits for the Tesla Model S Plaid provide a dramatic improvement in stopping power, heat management, and pedal feel. Designed for both spirited road use and high-performance track driving, these systems increase rotor size, caliper stiffness, and pad surface area, enabling shorter stopping distances and better brake modulation. On a 5,000+ lb. high-speed vehicle like the Plaid, factory brakes are often the limiting factor under repeated hard stops or aggressive driving. Our kits reduce brake fade with larger thermal capacity and use premium multi-piston calipers and floating rotors to evenly distribute heat and force. This ensures consistent braking performance, whether you’re at Laguna Seca or tackling a mountain pass. Additionally, our kits offer a more aggressive aesthetic that complements the Plaid’s performance identity. For optimal results, we recommend pairing them with our high-performance brake pads and stainless steel lines.

Tesla Model 3 Adjustable Front and Rear Sway Bar Set
Excellent product from a great team with great customer service! The factory Model 3 Performance's suspension is rather underwhelming, so once you add this Sway Bar kit along with the Dual Rate Linear Springs and Luxury Suspension Kit it completely transforms the car! UP also stands by their...

Tesla Cybertruck Wheel Spacers - 30mm & 50mm  - UP INVINCIBLE®
Want to stand out among other Cybtertrucks? This is a great place to start. If you're trying to decide between the 30mm and 50mm, go with the 50mm. The 2" that it kicks each tire out absolutely toughens the stance of the Cybertruck. I found these spacers to be EXTREMELY well made and easy to...

I received my Model Y in October of 2020. After watching many many YouTube videos I was expecting the Model Y suspension to be rough, it was. Some of the videos mentioned unplugged performance.

Tesla Model S / Model S Plaid (2021 - 2026+) Adjustable Front & Rear Sway Bar
I really like this rear sway bar on my 2021 Model S Plaid. On the street it tightens up the car a lot. The car corners "flatter" and "feels" like the car has more grip and inspires confidence. I installed this in my driveway with the rear up on jack stands. It wasn't hard at all. I opted for...

Really fixed my rear alignment problems. Lowered my car without it and had some slightly uneven tire wear. With 2 track days I even got 24,000 miles out of a single set of tires with perfectly even wear. This set will save you on tires after just one set, total no brainer for the price! Love being...
