4. Saints Row IV Standard UpgradesUpdate notes

When you to go to the hub menu, you'll see an upgrades menu in the lower left. These upgrades cost Cache instead of data clusters and should not be ignored. They're debatably an even more useful category of upgrades than the power upgrades. All upgrades are shown here so you can plan ahead on what you should save for and what to expect. Upgrades aren't directly related to any trophies, but they sure help you get to them one way or another. There is just one trophy for buying any single upgrade.

Note: Upgrades listed as free or obtained through progression are not listed since those are earned in means unrelated to Cache. Some of the greater ones are given to you for helping out your fellow Saints and doing other quests and challenges, so make sure you're doing as much as you can.
