How much overall traffic? 100 Mbps? 300Mbps? 600Mbps? And how much do you expect your traffic to grow in the next 12 and then 24 months?

Check out:

This pdf will give you a rough guide to the performance of some of Cisco's common routers.

If you have 4 x STM1 and that they're busy, I would guess that you need either a C7200 NPE-G2 or else a hardware-assisted router like an ASR1000 (don't get the ESP5 model - it will be useless as a border router in about 18-24 months). Maybe you can get away with something smaller, but don't get too small because your internet traffic is probably still growing.
