1) Boost Controller (unsure of make and model) any advice on which one to go with?
2) Neuspeed Cold Air Intake (Heard that we have a heat problem under our hoods and the cold air intake wont be cold for long, wouldnt make a difference because I will only be sucking hot air in) Any thoughts on that?
3) Cat Back Exhaust System (I have been looking at Milltek and Neuspeed)

Thanks for you help and any other additions that you feel I could benefit from, I would be welcome to hearing about.
When considering chips, check into 'REVO" software tuning. I just did a four bar map on my TT and I love the power changes. It really wakes the 180 up! The best part is I did not have to pull the ECU. Find the REVO dealer, drive to him. He'll plug into the OBD port and reflash you computer. Took about 20 min. for the whole thing to get done. I believe the dealers also allow a 80% 5 hour test drive. Meaning they flash you ECU, you drive it at 80% to let you see the power gains. After 5 hours drive time the ECU reverts back to stock. Pretty cool system. I've had my flash now for about 8 or 9 days! Loving it! I was able to take down a Subaru WRX (not sti) the other evening and I don't think I could have done that without REVO. Another point is that the cost is about the same as buying a chip. You don't have to pull the ECU, send it in and wait. IE: no down time. I'm sold on it. Once you have the flash you can purchase a SPS3 and program your ECU yourself. Adjust timing, boost and fuel. Enough ramble from me, check them out.
