I am assuming you want to turbo your N/A engine vs swapping in a tii engine. I wouldn't recommend doing this since you are "new to the whole rotary scene". If you are hellbent on going turbo I would recommend buying a tii engine, transmission, driveshaft and rear end off of a turbo and swapping everything over. Don't forget that you need to stay in your series (s4/s5) unless you want to mess around with counter weights.

All in all I recommend getting comfortable with your car first; learn how it behaves and handles. Do standard maintenance like changing all of the fluids, air filter, spark plugs, making sure your aux ports work like they should etc. If you want to start on performance modifications BUY COILOVERS BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING ELSE. After that I would recommend modifying your exhaust and intake.

How long have you had this car? Chances are its going to show its problem spots soon if you just got it (they are reliable cars if they are well maintained but you don't know how the previous owner maintained it). I had to change the starter, thermostat and master cylinder within 5 months of owning it. Save up your money first and enjoy what you have for now.
