Give Your Tesla Some Serious Handling Chops with Unplugged Performance


When you live next door to the Tesla Motors Design Center and SpaceX, chances are good you’re into Tesla vehicles. Unplugged Performance got its start in 2013 with one of the first aftermarket-modified Model S vehicles, and today is the leading designer and manufacturer of suspension and other upgrades for Model S, Model 3, and Model Y cars. Unplugged even hired road race legend Randy Pobst to help develop and fine-tune its parts. Think of it as serious go meets serious handling.

Summit Racing offers a good selection of Unplugged Performance components for your Tesla including these:

Coilover Suspension Kits for Tesla Model 3
Unplugged Performance coilover suspension kits are adjustable for street and track use. Set the coilovers to firm for excellent track handling, then reset them to soft for a ride that’s more comfortable than stock. Features include:
• Monotube coilover shocks with 24-way adjustable controls to adjust the ratio of rebound and compression damping
• Monotube design is lighter and offers more consistent performance
• Swift linear coilover springs
• Independent ride height adjustment ensures correct preload setting without handling loss
• Easy-to-access external adjustment knob included for fast access in the frunk
• Swift linear coilover springs with thrust sheets to reduce noise
• Progressive bump stops
• Uses the factory upper damper mounts to reduce transmission of excessive noise and vibration into the cabin
• Straightforward installation in 3 to 4 hours

Ultimate Edition Front Upper Control Arms for Model 3 and Model Y
Unplugged Performance made the first adjustable upper control arms for the Model 3 in 2017, and took that experience to create the Ultimate Edition control arms. They feature Unplugged’s
quick-change pill design that provides two degrees of additional negative camber for the track and can be reset to your street camber setting in just five minutes using just an Allen wrench and a floor jack. You’ll never need to worry about alignments remaining precisely where you set them, even after many quick camber changes.

The Ultimate Edition control arms are a monoblock design that encases the ball joint in a very rigid ‘cage’ and provides full control of camber, caster, and toe for precise alignment options. The shape is precisely sculpted to optimize suspension travel and retain clearance at full compression. Each side has easily accessed turnbuckles and bottom access adjustment points for alignment.

Other features include:
• OEM-style sealed spherical bearing design provide factory-quality noise and vibration levels
• Laser-etched right- and left-hand markings for easy installation
• 6061-T6 billet aluminum with corrosion-resistant Cerakote clearcoat
• Integrated attachment point to securely attach the wheel speed sensor line

Street and Track Sway Bars for Model S
These Unplugged Performance sway bars have three settings (soft, medium, and firm) so you can fine-tune them to your driving style. The bars will reduce body roll during cornering for more consistent tire adhesion (contact patch), improve chassis balance, and reduce understeer without the need to adjust spring rates. The sway bars also have polyurethane bushings that deflect less than rubber for immediate bar response. Unplugged Performance Street and Track Sway Bars are available as a pair for front and rear or separately.

Front Sway Bar Specifications
• 31.80mm solid
• Soft setting rate: 740 lbs./in.
• Medium setting rate: 890 lbs./in.
• Firm setting rate: 1,075 lbs./in.

Rear Sway Bar Specifications
• 22.2mm solid
• Soft setting rate: 114 lbs./in.
• Medium setting rate: 130 lbs./in.
• Firm setting rate: 150 lbs./in.

Front Lip Spoilers for Model 3 and Model S
This front lip spoiler looks good and works for a living too. It protects the bumper from scratches, scrapes, and other wear and tear. But more importantly, the spoiler reduce drag and adds downforce to improve tire grip. The spoilers are made from durable, impact-resistant urethane, install using the factory attachment points, and can be painted to match your car.

Summit Racing carries other Unplugged Performance parts including brake pads; front lower control arms; rear control, camber, and toe arms; and rear wings and spoilers.
