Clearly you either searched the wrong forums... or the concept of searching is far beyond you. Go back to drooling over Barney and leave your car alone.
That being said:
1. My suggestion would be... if you plan on upgrading your turbo... go GIAC... if you don't plan on upgrading your turbo... go APR. For the tip, GIAC tip chip
2. You can DIY, but professionally you get it dyno tuned perfectly to your car. DIY involves soldering your ECU... so it's a huge risk.
3. If you can't change your DV... don't touch your car beyond choosing an air freshener
Your auto can handle the chip... and probably a K04 and GIAC pretty well... but they're pretty feeble, I wouldn't push it. With an auto, I'd chip, intake, exhaust and leave it at that.
EDIT: Links added.... because I can read your mind.
