High output ignitions rarely adds horsepower. They will usually make the engine more responsive off idle but other then that you won't notice any difference over the stock coils. The nicest COP's I've seen for the 4V engine is the Weapon-X units. Very high quality and well designed.

A single blade TB is only worth about 10 hp over the stocker. If you were to get a TB the Billetflow is the best one out there.

I don't see any cooling mods on your sig. That would be a better place to spend your money and you won't have to retune. Just a suggestion

Like the above stated, go cooling mods first. You can not have enough of them.

I have heard nothing but good thing about Weapon X coils and might buy some myself eventually and pay for some dyno time to see what kind of gains (if any) they are worth. As noted above more cooling mods is never a bad thing! A heat exchanger or race radiator is a good investment if you're going to up the boost to 20 psi soon I think...or both like me : ) Texas summers are no joke! Like slowsvt said the tb won't show great gains but I think it's worth it. I got really good throttle response from mine as well as the plenum. Good luck...
