Yes. Supporting mods like oil coolers, gauges to monitor the system, clutch flywheel, csc upgrade, prolly to be on an even safer side u could go meth to keep detonation down even more. For AT guys tranny coolers, VBU upgrade n I believe u have to tune the AT also thru Osiris to help keep from slippage.
All these aid in keeping everything in check and being able to monitor if ur overheating oil or over boosting. People who cut these corners can't really tell and realize only when the motor goes BOOM something was wrong.

Have most boosted 7at's gone through replacement or repairs of the transmission due to its stock limitations?

My 7AT has the VB upgrade at 8k miles. It's not a ton of miles, but so far has held up nicely. The VB upgrade made the shifts more solid which will hopefully extend the life of the tranny. That being said, I get the feeling while I drive that a rebuild/upgrade of the tranny may be in the future. Only time will tell...
