Default turbo intake?

i want to get an intake but im not sure which i like the sound and performance of the cai but i eventually want a turbo. i heard cai do not work with turbos so what does? will i get the sound/performance with a short ram? and what is a cold air box? what is the diffrence between the intake and the airbox system listed below?
i figured i would fork out the extra money and go with this package what do you think?
M monster works STAGE 2
INTAKE = +8HP & +8.6TQ
AIRBOX = +4HP & +3TQ
RAM AIR KIT = +3HP
RACE HEADER & S-Pipe = +26HP & 24TQ
REGULAR RETAIL PRICE
M2 INTAKE SYSTEM = $275
M2 COLD AIRBOX = $125
WR RAM AIR KIT = $60
M2 RACE HEADER = $850
TOTAL: $1310
YOUR PRICE: $1150

would i have to replace any of this when i wanted to get a turbo? is it worth it? do you believe the power claims? this looks like it would sound nice any opinions on comparison with a cai? thanx for your time id apreciate any and all suggestions you have on any of these products.

Those are some high horsepower numbers dude! If anything you'll only be getting 15-20whp MAX with that stuff. Probably 15 max. Youd have to replace pretty much all of it if you went turbo. Intake needs to run to the turbo... header needs to run to the turbo so it'll be a new manifold.

Just save your money. Get a full exhaust (s-pipe back) - that'll give you a little oomph and will still work with the turbo.
