I agree to a point, however I think that the catch can and EGR blank are a great idea for any diesel engine.
The tune and other bits are great for me because I tow a lot and always intended to keep it for a long time. I get the benefit of the awesome power and torque gains...... and fuel economy.

As far as costs, definitely not in the thousands.
