is your car stock?
if you want it to be faster, you want to get a chip. check out APR or GIAC for those, search in the archive for more info on those. You also need to know what else you need to do to make sure your car stays reliable especially when chipping and also what can happen to your car from modding it (ie turbos blowing). Also if you are willing to shell out the money to fix the car if you have to. It might help by just reading threads on here for a couple days. Much easier than asking a bunch of questions since stuff comes up all the time and you will start to figure out stuff.

short answer, its not worth it....i have one but its from the previous owner....
and i dont have the stock airbox. It really doesnt help unless you go stage 3 (bigger turbos and upgraded fuel).

You most likely will want to do some maintenance first off before you start mod'in for power.
we need to know more info form you, when was the timing belt changed last? Depending on your mileage look at getting your timing belt, water pump, TBB (Throttle body boot) etc done.
Then do a little reading, search the forum on these topics:
Bi-pipe
piggie pipes
Diverter Valves (DV's)
GIAC
Lots of good archieve info sorted and stored here:
http://homepage.mac.com/edyjun1/S4/index.htm
and
http://www.s4biturbo.com/
after you spend a few days reading up, come back and ask more questions.
Good luck

skip on cold air intake for now, you won't need that until you get some larger turbos.
if you really want to do some intake stuff search for darintake, its a DIY and will give you some gains.
