Just bought an 06 VW Passat 2.0T Auto 6spd tiptronic. it has stock 200hp. Is it possible to increase the boost in the factory turbo or is it already maxed out. Can you suggest a turbo setup that can get me to at least 280hp

why not do super or apr chip it will get you to about 250 hp and then you turn up your boost by 2 psi and get little more juice out of it. Messing with stock turbo is never a good idea since its not ment for increase so if you do chip tune, intake and exhaust like stage one you will be at 260-270 hp and wont worrie about the damaginge anything.

I have APR software and it is full TurboBack Exhaust. The software performs flawlessly and the exhaust is exactly what it is an aftermarket exhaust. IMO, just go buy the software...it will be the best mod you get done to your Passat. It has a little drone, but nothing that is out of the ordinary. You can boost it with your passat.
