Having the timing belt & water pump done. What else should I do with it?

So I'm at 100k, and I'm having the timing belt and water pump done. Is there anything else that I should have the Tech do while he's doing the belt and pump?

I think its about time for new spark plugs, maybe clean out the IACV. I'd check with the manual.

As far as routine maintenance, I would also replace the idler and tensioner pulleys, auto tensioner (if it has never been replaced), tranny fluid, clean TB. For performance, might as well upgrade to a UR pulley since the belts and OEM crank pulley need to be removed anyway.

Might want to have them change the brake fluid, and some other things if they haven't been done....
