How to get all research upgrades in Watch Dogs 2?

I've reached level 22 and finished the story mode. From level 22 you don't seem to get research points for level upgrades and I must have been all over the map and collected all research points I could find. I still have like 5 upgrades to do. I can't imagine that I've missed about 40 research points (required to do the 5 updates).

Is it possible to do all upgrades from the main game, or are you required to buy and play DLC to get the remaining points?

No, the DLC won't get you new research points. Every now and then I find a new research point. So it seems they are all discoverable. I'm now left to the upgrades I don't really need, so I won't bother finding them all. If you like to find them all you can use a map with all the research locations.
