Default Car wiring question

Racecar is running MS3 gold box, which controls just about everything.
Its Gen 3 LS based engine which has a complete harness and will require accessories wired up for boost controller, trans brake and oil temp. Separately, I plan on wiring up two relays and switches for dual fuel pumps, relays and switches for trans cooler, radiator fan and oil cooler, then the accessory and Start switches.

just as a sanity check, what else am I missing?

alternator is single wire unit, easy install
no exterior lights (yet). When I do, they will all be on their own systems using LEDs and aircraft grade 24ga wire
no fuel cell sending unit
