Q: Will I be able to unlock the top speed on my Tesla Model S Plaid with an Unplugged Performance carbon ceramic big brake kit?
Installing an Unplugged Performance carbon ceramic big brake kit on your Tesla Model S Plaid will significantly improve your braking performance, offering superior stopping power, reduced fade, and better heat dissipation—especially during high-speed or track driving. However, the brake kit itself does not unlock or increase your vehicle’s top speed, as that is controlled by the car’s software and motor settings. The brake upgrade ensures you can safely and confidently manage high speeds by providing reliable, consistent braking when pushing your Model S Plaid to its limits. If you’re looking to unlock or increase top speed, that requires Tesla-approved software updates not offered directly by Unplugged Performance. Our brake kits are designed to complement those performance upgrades by enhancing safety and control at all speeds.

I have my model 3 performance and love it and now after adding these coil overs, can’t comprehend why these aren’t stock for tesla. These coil overs are amazing automagically felt like the car was on a cloud, handles great, and very smooth. Noise is reduced and can not believe I took this long...

My wife drives a Model Y as her daily driver and for a commuter car the model Y suspension can be very harsh. Purchased the luxury coilovers and sway bars to help with this. Only 1 mechanic in North Carolina was certified to do it that was in the unplugged performance network and I had problems...

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.

Purchased these to dial in my rear alignment, went through so many rear tires glad to be back into spec. I had a tire blow out on the freeway with my family because I didn't notice the inside of the tire had worn down so much in just 4k miles! These rear-toe arms would have avoided that ordeal.

You can see my photos under Steve Guevara. Wow, what to say about this spoiler. There are so many incredible things added to my SMG3 that since I have brought it home less than a week ago, I have had more that fifty conversations from strangers that absolutely have to have this spoiler. It...

I wanted to wait a few weeks before leaving my review to really see if there was a significant difference and it is a significantly better ride. I commute 70 miles a day on a fairly rough socal highway and the change is noticeable. Yes, you’re still going to feel the bumps but they are not as...

I recently purchased the Carbon Fiber long tail decklid spoiler for my Model X, the quality is outstanding, the finish and attention to detail of the spoiler is amazing. Looking forward to installing it on my X when it's being wrapped.
