Default NEWBIE-performance opinions needed

I am new to audi forums as well to the performance of my audi. I have a 2000 audi a4 quattro 1.8T. Yes its tiptronic I wanted a manual trans. but money doesnt come easy and I got a good deal. Now with the money issue in mind and a desire to have a car to just get a bit more out of and have fun with, Where do you believe I should start? I was looking at chipping my car, then going with a dv, and a turbo timer.

Very Little to no maintanence with these upgrades would be excellent...

Starting in the fall I go to school Full Time and I dont have the luxury of every tool at hand known to man...

Also with a new chip does anyone know a good P-chip that a shop will work with?? I have heard shops wont look at your car period if its chipped.. is this T/F??

Basically WHERE SHOULD I START WITH PERFORMANCE AND IN WHAT ORDER TO INSURE ITS DONE RIGHT?
