I also recently added AB to my Model 3 and I love it. (I referred my wife who bought a new Model Y. Win win!) I also think Chill mode is a little boosted as well. Chill feels almost as good as standard did before, but not quite... so for winter driving in Canada, Chill works well now... and for the summer time, I'll go for Sport.
I agree with chill mode affect. I’ve been driving mine in chill mode for a couple months. I put it in standard last weekend and oh boy…woke me up it did!
If you can demo the upgrade... suddenly you can come up with $2000 no problem. An additional half a second less to 60 doesn't sound like much but if you feel it, WOAH!!! For 100 HP, $2000 is pretty cheap, if you've ever modded gas cars. I got a 3 dual motor and OMG, it pulls HARD even if I'm already going 75 mph. If people don't want to let you over or something, of for whatever reason they're being a d ck, you can leave them in the dust SOOO hard! Hahaha! The first time that happened, I was snickering so hard I was crying! I didn't just leave him in the dust, I was frikin GONE and i saw his front end lift up and he had a big cloud of black smoke behind him, he was absolutely flooring it, and he fell back like a kleenex that was dropped out the window, it was not a fair fight AT ALL, hahaha! ...but after a while, everyone will have an EV and it won't mean anything anymore.
I’ve been waiting years to see this done on the Y with the Dyno awesome video very very good!!! The best man thanks for doing all your videos been following from day 1.
Yeah! I've been wanting to see this as well. Some people have been saying that it only adds around 50hp. Clearly it adds much more than that. I have a Model Y with Acceleration Boost. I've usually been telling people that it has around 420hp... but I guess I can tell them now that it's actually around 460hp!
Made about 150 on my 340i for about ~$600 with a dp and tune. Still bought the acceleration boost though, think it’s an okay deal for someone who wants a little more speed
For my car it will cost 11k to add 489 wheel horsepower from the stock 300wheel horsepower for a total of 789wheel horsepower on e85 of course. Not bad considering you could get the vr30 for 22k in a q50 sedan. However the q60 looks much better. You could also get the base nissan z since it’s the lightest variant. Stock block by the way.
I mean, it's all dependent on so many factors but not all ICE cars need $10K dumped into them for that kind of power gain. No way Jose. Look how amazing something like the Coyote 5.0 is? Or the "baby GTR" VR30DETT 3.0 twin turbo v6 from Infiniti. Or the amazing B58/S58 3.0 inline 6 from BMW with like, forged EVERYTHING. Just off the top of my head too, those cars can gain 100hp from just an ECU tune lol and if you went balls to the wall with $10k, you'd be looking at WAY more than "just 100hp" lol
To add 100 HP to a gas powered car would be way more than $2k unless you did Nitros or already have a turbo. But then you are most likely going to be in the shop spending money for repairs. I've done both and and it was a money pit. Plus, you can just use referral points to upgrade.
I have the MYP apparently it puts out 560bhp worth noting this is at the wheels! The equivalent ice would need 650bhp the rest lost in the transmission.
I just got my first Tesla two days ago I got the 2023 model three long range. I owned a lot of fun cars and I usually mod them with a tune, intake, exhaust, etc.. What interesting about this video is for $2000 the amount of power you get versus a internal combustion engine, trying to mod car to get another hundred horsepower would cost close to 5 to 10,000 depending on which way you go a turbo kit with the installation and everything else you need might get you another hundred horsepower but it will definitely cost you another five to $10,000
"If it flies, it spies!" 🤣 I'm still laughing. Good stuff. Interesting info on the acceleration boost. I'd definitely use a referral credit for it. $2,000 though, I'm too cheap haha. It is honestly a good deal though for those who have the cash.
all this 2000$ upgrade does is tells the controler to pull more amps from the bat pack, that is all there is. Charging that kind of money for it is pure genious from TESLA.
So you're saying a simple software tweak that tells the computer to draw more amps from the battery is genius because some owners are stupid enough to pay $2000 for 0.6 seconds.
@@06silverfire Performance model's standard suspension mode isn't the same as comfort suspension mode in LR? Standard: relaxed/calm character offering significant comfort and absorption improvement but still well controlled and engaging to drive in all conditions. Sport: elevates damping control for faster settling times to increase connection with the road during focused driving and improves steering response but still adapts to rougher roads.
I have a 2019 model 3 and put AB on it a couple months after I got it. It is well below 4 seconds 0-60. I think the Model Y is really a different class of car, so I'm not sure it would be worth it on a Model Y.
Picked up a Model Y on Sunday and added the AB while charging it on the way home. I only have about 30 minutes driving time on a stock Y but I'm pretty happy with the AB. It will definitely smoke the X4 M340 I traded in. LOL Thanks for the video.
I changed my Model Y order from Perf to LR so I can get a tow hitch and extra savings. I’m most curious how AB affects the 30-70 rip for getting on the freeway/passing. I barely floor my ICE car but the passing abilities of an EV are the most appealing performance characteristics.
I remember test driving both the LR and perf back to back. To me there was no difference from 30-90 onto a highway. So I ordered a LR and haven’t been disappointed.
I have AB and the gain is exactly where you want ir to be. After 70mph theres practically no gain vs srandard. It’s all before 60mph really, which is where I want my car to accelerate quickly anyway. But yeah it’s a pretty big difference
@@JV-py3lg I seem to recall a video where they did a rolling start from 30 with a LRP and P, and they were pretty much the same. From what I hear the P has a punch from launch that the LRP doesn't.
Thats why we sold our Tesla MYP. The acceleration which is important on Autobahn from 100kmh-200kmh was that slow that regular X3 Diesels where overtaking me.
It is the same. Around 100 HP but it is a little lighter weight. 0-100 kn/h just under 4 seconds It also changes the power balance quite much adding power to the front wheels - beware if you accelerate in wet tarmac if it is not straight - it can powerslide on all 4. I had it on my 2019 since December that year. It was a lot of fun initially - now I use it more rarely.
Used my referral points the other day to get the boost on my 3LR. It's a huge difference. I love it! even at 60mph it jumps good, but 0 up to 30 is great!!!
What kind of dyno do they have? Dyno Dynamics, Mustang? These are known as heartbreaker dyno's. Looking at your dyno it begins to taper down at about 65 and again at 80. Looking forward to the days we can tune towards consistent power if not flatter power band. This is good.
Copied from my other reply: The dyno needs engine RPM to calculate torque since a dyno is basically just a big electric generator that's measuring the kilowatt output and converting to HP. With engine RPM you can calculate torque. You could calculate a rough torque if you knew the gear ratio, road speed, and tire diameter. Some dynos use a brake and force sensor and only calculate torque, then with RPM you can calculate HP.
This is especially awesome to witness for those of us that may have “buyers remorse” for not getting the MYP… anything around 4 secs 0-60 is NOTHING to sneeze at. Now .. I wonder if Elon will run a, “this week only sale!” 🤔 🍀 lol
No, it was tested by other guys. If you drive the car in the same way before / after the boost it will not affect consumption. If you floor it, then it offcourse uses more power for that instance only.
Whoever told you they can’t measure torque is just wrong. You can’t measure horsepower. You measure torque at an rpm and that is horsepower. Yes, that is torque at the wheels so it is much higher than torque at the motor. However, you just divide the wheel torque by 9.0363:1 and that is the “motor wheel torque”.
Y is your Tesla model Y long Range better than a Performance model Y? #1 the Price #2 the smaller wheels don’t brake when you hit a pot hole #3 your ride is smoother #4 Tires are cheaper! #5 Tires last Longer! #6 your Ride is Quieter! Just add the Performance Boost like you did and be happy with the Best Car in the World!
Also note that more HP means faster top-end. Torque is more for off the line acceleration, so you should also notice an improvement on how quickly the car accelerates at high speeds.
@@Andrew-zx9wx Yes agreed 30-70 range, you can feel much more torque , I had it on both of my Model Y and 3. and It seem lot stronger on Model Y, even though on paper, they both should be the same
Depends on what you mean with faster speeds. I measured my Model Y before and after the Acceleration Boost with my Racebox and it's now faster from 0 to about 70mph, from there it's the same acceleration.
This is not true. Horsepower is a function of the torque made at a specific RPM. When a car advertises having a specific horsepower output, that is the peak horsepower. Horsepower = (Torque * RPM)/5252
Yes it does this. Bought a Model Y dual motor from Tesla and it does feel this crazy fast for a daily driver family car. (It is a nice perk to buy from Tesla as they give this boost for free)
Only did 1 run with my Dragi and it clocked 0-60 mph in 4.23s. On the same run the 0-60(1ft rollout) shows 4.00s. Very happy with the acceleration boost.
You can easily get 100+hp for under 1k on supercharged or turbo cars. A couple of hundred $ got me around that on my 04 cobra with bolt ons. But a N/A car you can spend thousands for an extra 50hp. This is a really good result and well worth the money imo. Then again you'll be kicking yourself you didn't get the even faster performance model.
More than enough power still. I put my MYP to "chill" mode as it's just insane acceleration for daily driving in "sport" mode. This is with 21" uberturbines, but my plan is du reduce to 18 or 19" uberturbines lookalike wheels which should give both better comfort and acceleration and better range over when doing 70+ mph
Should have done that first pass over. Something strange happened with their dyno with that dip mid range. Don’t think it would have been 100hp if it was clean like the 2nd run. More like 50hp
Now we need a Model Y Performance and a Ghosted MY LR tested on that same dyno under the same charge conditions. Should make the decision price point value clearer for whether to buy a Performance or add acceleration boost or consider Ghosting an LR model. It would be a first, since afaik have Not seen this test done back to back Anywhere

Torque is irrelevant for electric motors, it's kinda like knowing your gear ratio. Who cares. Only power is relevant. Torque was only ever relevant for ICE cars with gearboxes with a small number of gears. Its been irrelevant for performance ICE cars for a long time
@@vxnova1 you can gear to whatever torque you want. Car acceleration is governed by power and grip. For ICE cars, having a gearbox with lots of high speed gears also helps.
@@vxnova1No, torque is a measure of force (on a defined lever), hp is a measure of power (as the "p" in hp" suggests) - where power is work done per time. In layman's terms, torque is how strong the motor is trying to rotate the wheels (via driveshaft or directly in EVs). HP is how much energy the car can expend per time to propel the car forward. ICE motors have relatively low torque, that is why they are not good at acceleration and they even need a gearbox to prevent stalling the motor at low speed (basically a gearbox trades torque for speed of rotation).
All of you sheeps wear the same thing because the other sheep wears it, lack of originality, you are bound to bump into the same or similar shades everyday, no surprise there 🤦🏼♀️
I've been contemplating this for a while. I agree there should be 3 modes, not just 2. Also, track mode should absolutely be included in this relatively expensive software unlock. Thanks for the test, although I do question that huge dip, I don't seem to feel that in mine, would like to see another dyno run in normal. But the peak numbers look close, 100hp is pretty sweet. Although... that initial ramp up in normal at 55mph looks like it would probably hit a bit higher then the peak at 95mph. I bet the actual peak is closer to 375-400. If I remember correctly the stock combined motor output is somewhere around 430. Since there's very little drivetrain loss, I bet 375-400 is correct.
@@Pretagonist Maybe. There are hardware differences in the performance model too. If not the full track mode, let us turn off stability and traction control at least.
All the numbers sound wrong to me. What year LR is this? Cos they don’t weigh 4400lb. Also the stock M3LR 0-60 should be 4.2s and with Acceleration Boost come down further from that. Possibly as low as 3.9 according to some sources. So what are you doing wrong to get only 4.7 stock? Not high enough SoC? Battery not warm enough?
Gjeebs , what do Tesla owners do about a Full Spare . Im thinking of buying a Y and i out about 4000 miles a month on my vehicles , ie Im on the Road a lot .
I'm not sure if this is true of the LR or base model, but on the Model 3 Performance you can get a difference of up to 200HP based on the temperature and SOC of the battery. Learningfast has a video on it
@@louisolivierfortin Here's the video if you want to see his measurements. ua-cam.com/video/5-UhGJm8RjU/v-deo.html The measurements seem accurate because he is also confirming it with drag race times. I don't know if this is a quirk of the performance model where it will just dump as much as the batteries can provide into the motors and if the other models are hard capped on discharge, but apparently for the best drag times you need to constantly precondition the battery.
@@g.4279 I do think it’s exclusively for the performance model. I did dragy tests on my 2023 LR 3 + AB and it basically does the same exact 1/8mile and trap speed at 95% and 70%. About 7,66 @ 93mph. Tried preconditioning the battery and saw no improvement whatsoever.
@@louisolivierfortin Interesting. You should make a video about it and reach out to him! A lot of people were wondering if the LR and base models were software capped.
I love that there is an option to juice up the Model Y LR. Maybe one day. But for now, I've switched 100 miles back to "Chill" mode in an effort extend my charges and more importantly tire life. If I had that extra power and used it very often I'd be beggaring myself replacing the tires. So at least for now I'll augment my marginal self control by not giving myself the opportunity to leave all that rubber on the road. But, maybe one day .... :)
@@Trust_but_Verify I've put about 1,000 miles on the tires that Tesla put on the car. I'd love to get 40,000 miles, but I'd not be surprised were it only half that. I've not looked into exactly which tires are on the car but they hold the road so well when whipping around turns and accelerating or braking hard that I assume they're an expensive, soft formulation. So, I've decided to learn to drive more sedately. Autopilot helps with that. It can actually make it fun to just hang in the slower lanes for short trips.
Excellent video sir. I hope they bring this down in price as I would purchase it at $500-$1000. 2000 is a bit steep for me. Would love to get some referral points but unable to get anyone to want to buy Tesla unfortunately.
@Gjeebs So the 2024 MYLR is rated by some automotive sources as 425hp/475 lb-ft of torque, while some others claim 384hp/375 lb-ft. Based on your Dyno test with 15% drivetrain loss at the wheel. The crank hp is 415hp appx (361whp). With 10% drivetrain loss it’s at 397hp appx. It’s so confusing to find official actual power rating for this car. I had to search and saw your video of actual dyno to realize that a stock MYLR is at least making close to 400hp. Now the question is that did 2024 version get more power or same as early versions. When they tweaked the suspension etc. A dyno test of 22 vs 24 would be nice.
Just got mine 2 days ago and have the performance boost. What an amazing driving experience...

@@D00MINIK Yes, that is what I meant, 0-70 mph, I can feel lot stronger pull
This is not true. Horsepower is a function of the torque made at a specific RPM. When a car advertises having a specific horsepower output, that is the peak horsepower.
Horsepower = (Torque * RPM)/5252
Yes it does this. Bought a Model Y dual motor from Tesla and it does feel this crazy fast for a daily driver family car.
(It is a nice perk to buy from Tesla as they give this boost for free)
I've got a Model 3 dual motor here in Thailand. For some reason (which Tesla won't share) acceleration boost is not available. 😕
Wish adding FSD was that quick after purchase. So true about going to chill mode and back normal.
Yea I was amazed how fast it was
Was a good opportunity missed to test both Chill modes too, are they the same?
Another great video. Thank you!
Can your Dragy calculate 0-60 with rollout?
This would be a closer comparison to the Performance.
Only did 1 run with my Dragi and it clocked 0-60 mph in 4.23s. On the same run the 0-60(1ft rollout) shows 4.00s. Very happy with the acceleration boost.
How long did you keep the white wrap on the glass roof?
You can easily get 100+hp for under 1k on supercharged or turbo cars. A couple of hundred $ got me around that on my 04 cobra with bolt ons. But a N/A car you can spend thousands for an extra 50hp.
This is a really good result and well worth the money imo.
Then again you'll be kicking yourself you didn't get the even faster performance model.
Are these gains the same in a Model 3 Long Range???
It gives 50hp ca.
the dyno pull here is tucked.
The 3 lr has 450hp, and just about 500 with boost.
Love my Y and the acceleration boost makes a huge difference
So, 100hp for a Long Range/Standard Range? What is the power output of the Performance Y? Great job!!
More than enough power still. I put my MYP to "chill" mode as it's just insane acceleration for daily driving in "sport" mode. This is with 21" uberturbines, but my plan is du reduce to 18 or 19" uberturbines lookalike wheels which should give both better comfort and acceleration and better range over when doing 70+ mph
Should have done that first pass over. Something strange happened with their dyno with that dip mid range. Don’t think it would have been 100hp if it was clean like the 2nd run. More like 50hp
Correct. Gives ~50hp.
That first pull sucked. Lol
Totally tucked up.
Now we need a Model Y Performance and a Ghosted MY LR tested on that same dyno under the same charge conditions.
Should make the decision price point value clearer for whether to buy a Performance or add acceleration boost or consider Ghosting an LR model.
It would be a first, since afaik have Not seen this test done back to back Anywhere
I had AB on M3LR then added Ghost module. It was night and day improvement in power
I just bought the performance model 🥴 absolutely love it
Yea it's an incredible vehicle. I am going to Dyno a performance soon
Is model y long range dual engine 378kw so it is 510 hp how can it be 362 hp
It's measuring horsepower at the wheels
What wheels are those?
What is the name of the application that u use to measure 0 to 60?
I don’t see how the MYLR with AB could feel the same as a P if the difference is larger than the one from LR to LR w/AB
i have a SR/RWD Model 3. So jealous of those with LRs that can add this.
How much the acceleration boost affects range/efficiency if you don't drive aggressively?
None.
What was the reason for no torque numbers
The dyno needs engine RPM to calculate torque since a dyno is basically just a big electric generator that's measuring the kilowatt output and converting to HP. With engine RPM you can calculate torque. You could calculate a rough torque if you knew the gear ratio, road speed, and tire diameter.
Some dynos use a brake and force sensor and only calculate torque, then with RPM you can calculate HP.
Torque is irrelevant for electric motors, it's kinda like knowing your gear ratio. Who cares. Only power is relevant. Torque was only ever relevant for ICE cars with gearboxes with a small number of gears. Its been irrelevant for performance ICE cars for a long time
@@EwanM11 torque is a measure of power, hp is a measure of work done, I think it is very relevant, especially the curve,
@@vxnova1 you can gear to whatever torque you want. Car acceleration is governed by power and grip. For ICE cars, having a gearbox with lots of high speed gears also helps.
@@vxnova1No, torque is a measure of force (on a defined lever), hp is a measure of power (as the "p" in hp" suggests) - where power is work done per time.
In layman's terms, torque is how strong the motor is trying to rotate the wheels (via driveshaft or directly in EVs).
HP is how much energy the car can expend per time to propel the car forward.
ICE motors have relatively low torque, that is why they are not good at acceleration and they even need a gearbox to prevent stalling the motor at low speed (basically a gearbox trades torque for speed of rotation).
What is the torque difference?
Why did you skip the dyno pull?
Didn't feel like that added any value to the video. No exhaust sound or anything haha
The graph from the « before » dyno is wonky as hell I think it messed the peak hp part. It probably not 100hp peak hp gain.
The sunshades look identical to the ones I bought on aliexpress 😮
All of you sheeps wear the same thing because the other sheep wears it, lack of originality, you are bound to bump into the same or similar shades everyday, no surprise there 🤦🏼♀️
Did Tesla take away the option to redeem points for acceleration boost? I don't see it in the app anymore.
They only offer it on long range models. Check in the car infotainment as well.
Do you still have the tparts carbon spoiler on your car that you reviewed? Mine started delaminating after only 3 months.
Yes I still have mine on. Have you sent their customer service an e-mail to get it replaced?
@@GjeebsYes I sent them an email but got no response. Was going to give it another try.
Does this bring the power level to the same as the Model Y Performance or does the performance have a bit more in it?
There’s be several videos where they raced, and the performance will slightly beat it every time.
The performance is still faster from a dig. But once up to speed they are neck and neck.
@@Nessal83pretty sure the P still pulls compared to the AB
What year is this?
😊
another great Video Ben.. love your stuff.. fun fact, your Tesla video had an add for an Ionic and how it beats model 3. haha.. -Mark
I had the M3LR and added the performance boost. I could certainly notice the difference.
Did the w/h go up after adding AB?
@@Trust_but_Verify not that I noticed
@@Trust_but_Verify if by w/h you mean wheel hop (why not spell it out), that's not really a thing on a tesla...
watts per hour energy usage
😂😂
Good info. Thanks.
Hi Gjeebs! I also saw the Model Y roof sunshades from VION you recommended. Which one is better? I love the VION one so far!
yes，I love VION too
Worth it espically if you could not get a performance dt needing 7 seats
What’s the hp in chill mode?
Great question, I'll do that next
I've been contemplating this for a while. I agree there should be 3 modes, not just 2. Also, track mode should absolutely be included in this relatively expensive software unlock.
Thanks for the test, although I do question that huge dip, I don't seem to feel that in mine, would like to see another dyno run in normal. But the peak numbers look close, 100hp is pretty sweet.
Although... that initial ramp up in normal at 55mph looks like it would probably hit a bit higher then the peak at 95mph. I bet the actual peak is closer to 375-400. If I remember correctly the stock combined motor output is somewhere around 430. Since there's very little drivetrain loss, I bet 375-400 is correct.
They won't add track mode since that would pretty much destroy the market for the performance version
@@Pretagonist Maybe. There are hardware differences in the performance model too. If not the full track mode, let us turn off stability and traction control at least.
@@andrewt9204 I want to be able to control the front to rear power. I'd upgrade in a second if they'd include track mode.
All the numbers sound wrong to me.
What year LR is this? Cos they don’t weigh 4400lb.
Also the stock M3LR 0-60 should be 4.2s and with Acceleration Boost come down further from that. Possibly as low as 3.9 according to some sources.
So what are you doing wrong to get only 4.7 stock? Not high enough SoC? Battery not warm enough?
My performance Model Y got 569 HP lol id love to see that here
I would like to know what the horsepower output in chill mode...
Gjeebs , what do Tesla owners do about a Full Spare . Im thinking of buying a Y and i out about 4000 miles a month on my vehicles , ie Im on the Road a lot .
What is chill mode
It's a less aggressive acceleration mode. Takes 0-60 (on my Model Y) from 4.2 seconds to 7.2
My last day in Phoenix. Thanks for the info/entertainment. Back to California.
GJeebs _. What type , size are your wheels ? And Everyday Tires ?
Excellent video yet again. Keep the content coming.
I'm not sure if this is true of the LR or base model, but on the Model 3 Performance you can get a difference of up to 200HP based on the temperature and SOC of the battery. Learningfast has a video on it
I mean 200hp is stretched. Maybe possible between low SOC and 20f weather vs high SOC and 90f. But that can be the case with other models too
@@louisolivierfortin Here's the video if you want to see his measurements. ua-cam.com/video/5-UhGJm8RjU/v-deo.html
The measurements seem accurate because he is also confirming it with drag race times. I don't know if this is a quirk of the performance model where it will just dump as much as the batteries can provide into the motors and if the other models are hard capped on discharge, but apparently for the best drag times you need to constantly precondition the battery.
@@g.4279 I do think it’s exclusively for the performance model. I did dragy tests on my 2023 LR 3 + AB and it basically does the same exact 1/8mile and trap speed at 95% and 70%. About 7,66 @ 93mph. Tried preconditioning the battery and saw no improvement whatsoever.
@@louisolivierfortin Interesting. You should make a video about it and reach out to him! A lot of people were wondering if the LR and base models were software capped.
I love that there is an option to juice up the Model Y LR. Maybe one day. But for now, I've switched 100 miles back to "Chill" mode in an effort extend my charges and more importantly tire life. If I had that extra power and used it very often I'd be beggaring myself replacing the tires. So at least for now I'll augment my marginal self control by not giving myself the opportunity to leave all that rubber on the road. But, maybe one day .... :)
Are you on OEM tires and how many miles do you want the tires to last?
@@Trust_but_Verify I've put about 1,000 miles on the tires that Tesla put on the car. I'd love to get 40,000 miles, but I'd not be surprised were it only half that. I've not looked into exactly which tires are on the car but they hold the road so well when whipping around turns and accelerating or braking hard that I assume they're an expensive, soft formulation. So, I've decided to learn to drive more sedately. Autopilot helps with that. It can actually make it fun to just hang in the slower lanes for short trips.
Excellent video sir. I hope they bring this down in price as I would purchase it at $500-$1000. 2000 is a bit steep for me. Would love to get some referral points but unable to get anyone to want to buy Tesla unfortunately.
May be a dumb question, maybe I missed it. Is this a LR?
Yes. That's the only one that can get the boost
Wow that are probably the cheapest 100 hp that you can buy anywhere.
@Gjeebs So the 2024 MYLR is rated by some automotive sources as 425hp/475 lb-ft of torque, while some others claim 384hp/375 lb-ft.
Based on your Dyno test with 15% drivetrain loss at the wheel. The crank hp is 415hp appx (361whp). With 10% drivetrain loss it’s at 397hp appx.
It’s so confusing to find official actual power rating for this car. I had to search and saw your video of actual dyno to realize that a stock MYLR is at least making close to 400hp.
Now the question is that did 2024 version get more power or same as early versions. When they tweaked the suspension etc. A dyno test of 22 vs 24 would be nice.
I may do that
@@Gjeebs subscribed and looking forward to it. Also, a dyno of your new Model 3P vs last gen Model 3P would be nice.
What did the lady say about why it doesn’t work?
THANK YOU for this video. Great
You're welcome! I have been planning it for years but didn't want to pay 2k for the boost haha
Did you guys put the car into dyno mode in the secret menu?
