Product Details
The 2021+ Tesla Model X delivers instant torque and serious speed while carrying family, luggage, or gear with ease. That real-world versatility benefits from a braking system that feels predictable, repeatable, and confidence inspiring. Our Stage 1 package focuses on the two upgrades that transform feedback and control without replacing calipers or rotors: performance brake pads and stainless steel sport brake lines.
UP x PFC performance pads, front and rear
Developed with Performance Friction, the Street & Track compound provides a substantial increase in initial bite, stable friction at elevated temperatures, and excellent modulation. Unlike full race pads, Street & Track is engineered to work in daily use without requiring high heat to perform. Noise and dust are well managed for street duty, and rotor wear is controlled. For drivers who regularly enjoy twisty roads, spirited commutes, towing, mountain descents, autocross, or occasional track days, this is the sweet spot that preserves everyday livability.
For closed-course needs where even more bite and thermal headroom are desired, our Competition compound is available. This race-leaning friction material is not recommended for regular street use since it can increase noise and dust, accelerate rotor wear, and needs temperature to shine. Choose Competition only if your Model X primarily sees track environments and you accept those tradeoffs.
Stainless Steel Sport Brake Lines
From the factory, the Model X uses rubber hoses that can expand under hard braking. That expansion softens pedal feedback and reduces precision. Our stainless braided, Teflon-lined Sport Brake Lines resist expansion to deliver a firmer, more consistent pedal and finer control when you are braking repeatedly, towing downhill, or driving quickly. Each kit is vehicle-specific for 2021+ Model X and includes four lines, brackets that follow factory routing, plus crush washers and banjo bolts for a proper install. Professional installation is recommended.
Fluid matters
High-temperature racing brake fluid is strongly recommended with any performance pad upgrade. Choose a premium option such as Motul RBF 660, PFC RH 665, Endless RF 650, or Castrol SRF. OEM DOT 4 fluid will function, but it can contribute to a mushy pedal during sustained hard use. Proper bleeding and a correct bed-in procedure are essential to achieve the best results.
Who is this for
Stage 1 is ideal if you want a noticeable increase in bite, pedal feel, and confidence without changing calipers or rotors. It is a straightforward, OEM-friendly upgrade that preserves daily comfort while adding real performance for the way Model X is used in the real world. Many of our Model X owners run this package for spirited street driving, family road trips through the mountains, or towing, and consistently report a calmer, more predictable brake system.
Fitment and compatibility
This package is designed for all 2021+ Tesla Model X trims. Pads are drop-in for the OEM calipers and rotors. The stainless line kit is engineered for the 2021+ platform. If you plan to upgrade to our carbon ceramic big brake kit later, note that our BBK includes stainless lines. Always verify your exact trim and hardware before purchase.
What is included
- UP x PFC performance brake pads, front and rear (Street & Track)
- Stainless Steel Sport Brake Line Set for 2021+ Model X (four lines, vehicle-specific brackets, crush washers, banjo bolts)
Upgrade your 2021+ Model X with parts selected for EV duty cycles and trusted by enthusiasts who value both refinement and performance.

Will upgrading my brakes void the Tesla warranty?
Tesla’s warranty covers factory-installed parts, but it does not automatically void your warranty if you install aftermarket components like Unplugged Performance brake kits. Under U.S. law (Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act), Tesla must prove that an aftermarket part caused a failure in order to deny warranty coverage. Our parts are engineered to work harmoniously with Tesla OEM Brake systems and can be professionally installed by Unplugged Performance in Hawthorne, CA or by an authorized installer to minimize risk. That said, any damage directly caused by misuse or improper installation may not be covered. We recommend retaining all factory parts so you can revert to stock if needed. Many Tesla owners enjoy peace of mind by using Unplugged Performance products, which are extensively tested and installed by certified professionals. If warranty concerns are top-of-mind, our team can help clarify compatibility and installation best practices to ensure a worry-free experience.
What does the Unplugged Performance product warranty cover?
Unplugged Performance offers a comprehensive warranty on all parts and installations performed by our certified technicians. Warranty coverage applies to defects in materials and workmanship on items including lowering springs, coilovers, big brake kits, brake pads, stainless steel brake lines, shocks, and more. Should any covered part fail under normal use or display premature wear, we will repair or replace it at no additional cost—assuming the component was installed by us or at one of our authorized partners.
This warranty is valid for 2 years or 24,000 miles, whichever comes first, excluding consumable products like brake pads, rotors, and tires, starting from the installation date. Coverage extends to labor for warranty repairs when performed by Unplugged Performance or an authorized installer. It does not cover damage resulting from misuse, accidents, off‑road use, improper installation not done by us, or modifications that aren’t factory-approved.
To file a warranty claim, simply contact our service team. We’ll guide you through inspection, shipping (if needed), and repair or replacement logistics. transparencia and top-tier support are what you can expect from Unplugged.
Will Tesla void my warranty if I install aftermarket parts?
A vehicle’s comprehensive warranty as a whole may not be voided due to use of aftermarket parts per the Magnusson-Moss Warranty Act (www.sema.org/sema-enews/2011/01/ftc-validates-right-to-install-aftermarket-parts). However, a manufacturer may require a customer to pay for parts and labor for a repair if there is direct causation between a customer’s alteration and the product or service repair being requested. It is in both manufacturer and customer’s interest to follow logic and reason so that the system of good faith is not abused. If this topic interests you please read the law as well as your warranty documentation. Ultimately we are Tesla owners and enthusiasts, we are not lawyers and cannot provide legal advice.
