It's baffled, holds more oil, looks boss, and sits higher than a spacer pan. What's not to like? Holding 7-8 quarts of oil is a boon (including oil cooler[s]). I was a bit jealous of the larger intercoolers too, until I found out my kit gets them too haha. There is a surprising amount of parts sharing (minus turbos and xtra piping) between them, mine cost nearly 2x as much, and doesn't make as much under the curve! There is good reason why so many are jumping on this. If I were to go TT, this would be it, it really helps guys afford the supporting mods and stay in a reasonable price point. Instead of spending $15k, you can spend 10. At least that's the way I see it. Hopefully these guys don't get "turbo vision" and focus only on the kit, but get the supporting mods that are recommended.

Take my word for it, this kit with proper supporting mods and install will still be > 10K. Totally worth it, though.

Spark plugs, oil cooler, if you are not getting the turn key, then a basic fuel system upgrade---fuel pump upgrade plus injectors, maybe a clutch and exhaust.

The last two are if you want to try to get the most from these kits without doing an engine build...

"Needed" is a bit subjective. For me, I focused on significant upgrades to the overall cooling system, a good EBCS, and gauges to keep my eye on things. Did not replace the clutch yet because it is not worn out yet. Only have 4700 miles on the car. I drove my 490 WHP STI on stock clutch for years, though it did start slipping at the end. When my Z starts slipping, I will address that.
