Message I've seen some posts that say some aftermarket add-on parts are necessary and some do not really add that much realiability. I'm not talking about upgrades, such as bigger injectors or larger turbos. But I am talking about items, such as turbo timers, oil coolers, LSD oil cooler, etc, etc. My question, which ones are worth the money and which ones do little? Which add-ons are worth considering? Keep in mind that I am considering running on the streets only and I will probably never see the track. Also, I realize that nothing will last FOREVER, so I would like to see items that add only several hundred miles as an item not to be concerned with. In this sense, it's probably better to replace than it is to add the add-on to add only 100 or 200 miles of longevity.

The items that I am most concerned about are (please feel free to add other items of discussion):

1) turbo timer (this was discussed recently in another post)
2) oil cooler
3) transmission oil cooler
4) differential oil cooler
5) intercooler ducts
6) boost controller with more than 2 settings
7) air/fuel gauge (other gauges?)
8) accurate boost gauge (other than for tuning)
9) 5" tach with shift light
