Useless accessory that does not make the car go faster.

Renault is way ahead of you, they did this years ago with one of their hot hatches - I remember a Top Gear reviewer going through the various options. Nothing as extreme as what you suggest but you could make the car sound like anything from a V8 muscle car to a high-revving formula racer.
