any advice?

I recently bought a 2000 TT 1.8 and would like to make some mods to it. No idea where to begin... any suggestions would be great!

Do you know of any good places to purchase and/or install it? I live in Westchester county.

RE: any advice?

I've never made any chips for any car before... Plus I'd hate to have something bad happen due to my lack of knowledge, that's another reason why I joined this forum to pick everyone's brain!

no, you dont chip your self. What you do is find good parking, remove the ECU, ship the ECU to the chiper like GIAG or similar. they ship it back and you install it back.

the most common chip I know is "93 Octane"
