go to audizine.com, a4mods.com, audiworld.com....all these sites will help you out. Im relatively new to the world of audi as well and every is going to tell you to go do the research because well....its been writen 100 times over. Rims you can go up to 19 comfterably, cold air intake you will lose HP, exhaust theres a few...your car on them...neuspeed, APR i think has one, milltek....

Nice!
I'm actually looking at moving up to a USP Avant but the b7s are really tempting too! Especially an S4 ;) good choice
