How to export folders on the exchange server itself
I am trying to export a folder from outlook that is 20gigs, When I try and do it from outlook it keeps timing out.. My guess is do to the size of the folder.
Is there a way to do this from the exchange server itself? or is there a 3rd party tool?

From the server you can use the Exmerge utility. Outlook cannot be installed on a server running Exchange
There is no way that you can export a 20gb mailbox from the server itself.
EXMERGE is limited to 2gb so would have to be run multiple times.
You will need to do things manually to a PST file, probably some time at once. 20gb is a very large folder and Outlook will struggle to cope.

I have never used exmerge before, is there an option in the program to spread the size into multiple .pst files?
