recommended changeout for TB is 5 years or 50,000 miles.
if you have no records, then yes, a changeout is a good thing.
as it has been said here, your non interference motor probably won't break/bend any valves when (not if) the belt breaks.
count on about $750 in parts for the standard TB/H2o pump kit, plus labor.
if you are going to do this, I would recommend Porken's tensioner kit as well. replaces the tensioner with a modern Audi unit that requires no servicing like the Porsche tensioner does. just plug it in and go.
