Sounding pretty desperate there!
Borla, APR, Milltech are good exhausts
stock turbo boosts around 7-10 psi
A turbo controller, or boost controller is not good for a stock setup.
Depends on what power your looking for to recomend a turbo.. if your new to the 1.8t and dont want to spend a crap load of money for power, try getting a chip and then see how you feel. It will make you boost around 12-15 psi and give you 50 more hp and about 80 more tq. Very noticeable and big improvement with a chip!

Take a chill pill. What's the specifics on you car, I see it's a 2000, is it quattro or fwd? manual or tiptronic? How much are you willing to spend on your car? Is there any specific hp you'd like to get? Is this a daily driver car for you or is it more of a weekend warrior?

When you start modding your car, it quickly becomes a trade-off between reliability and power. So be prepared for stuff to break if you do start throwing money at it. Make sure to start an emergency car fund also.

You need to learn how to use the search function for such basic questions, rather than starting a new thread everytime you have a simple question.
