Default Seriously now - need 1st mod opinions

Alright. Serious topic here...

03 1.8T Quattro - non sport.

Where do I start
a) chip & brakes
b) suspension
c) air flow - downpipe and/or exhaust
d) other

I want to do all of these things but need to do something first or nothing will ever happen.

I'm looking for a fairly inexpensive starting point (but know parts cost $$) that will give me more HP at lower revs and tighter handles.

Default D

Driving school! If you can't make it to one before the end of the season, do a chip.

I'm going to sign up for G-man since I hear there are still spots. I have to sign up as an official Audi member and all that first though.

Default mods are bad and should be avoided at all costs....

... the first mod you should do is go to a few driveing schools.

After that I would do chip and exhaust on that car first. the suspension is not too bad out of the box on the B6 cars.

Default Stop yelling at me! Fine - I'll go to school...

but if I'm good and don't start any trouble and do my homework can I have some parts then?

Seriously though - good advice guys. I'm all for figuring something out before you start screwing with it.
