T20, T25 and T50 are the few I've used.

I have this set: 100Pc Driver Bit Set - Jaycar Electronics
and added the T50.

Old Salt, is that the full monty or the code reader. I am toying with the idea of getting one too.

Yep, I have one of those :) (just a reader/clearer). Handy piece of kit for bugger-all money.

If the actuator on the primary turbo gets sticky causing limp mode (MAP/MAF/turbo airflow inconsistancies) then it can be fixed by clearing the ecm faults whilst holding the engine up a few revs then flicking the accelerator a few times as soon as the fault codes are gone. They're also great for discovering the precise suspension fault so that appropriate strategies can be used to prevent or lessen the likelihood of total failure.
