Default Best First Upgrade

Hey Guys! Be nice, I'm new here.

OK, so I just purchased a 2001 A4 with 104,000km on it, in very good condition. It is bone stock, and I am pretty impressed with the power, and VERY Impressed with the ride and handling.

But even if it were perfect, there would be upgrades, wouldn't there?

So my question is this"

What are my best options for my first upgrades? Wheels and Tyres are good, and I'm guessing that there isn't much to do suspension wise, but Performance wise I'm sure there are a lot of low cost options to perk it up a bit.

New Chip?
K&N Filter Kit?
bigger injectors?

Any help is most appreciated.

OK, so I am willing to purchase in USA or anywhere else, but I definitely want to wake this thing up a bit. I got my **** HANDED to me by a Skyline GT this week, and I want to be able to keep up.

Where is a good place to start with performance upgrades?

OK, so I got my **** HANDED to me in traffic 2 days ago by a Skyline GT-T. The A4 needs a kick in the **** and I want input please.

Surely there is someone here that can give me some upgrade options and some HP numbers?

What is the effect of the following and where should I get them?

ECU Upgrade
K&N Air Filter
Injector Upgrade
Turbo Upgrade
Exhaust upgrade.

I want teh car to still be very driveable, but fuel economy isn't a big factor. I have a 2001 model B5 with 65,000 miles (106,000 KM) on it.

Any input is most appreciated.
