Don't do either. No one makes a CAI that actually makes power for the longitudinal 1.8T, and an electronic boost controller will 1. take you outside the efficiency range of the K03, and 2. make you run lean. Instead, for the money you would have spent on those two useless items, get a chip. It's like a boost controller that's much smarter and better than you.

Ehhh, you might be able to sell them on eBay. Not the CAI, but maybe the EBC, esp. if it's universal. And plenty of people do the CAI thing. It might lose you 5hp. It's like a rite of passage for Audi n00bs.
But cut your losses and get a chip now. Let the healing start.

Yea, check out the APR chip and the GIAC chip, generally they are the best chips on the market for the A4's
