Meh.
What do you need an upgraded ignition for? Honda ignitions are plenty strong, so you won't see much of a difference. Just save your money for something more useful.
And correct me if I am wrong, but it looks like that setup is more geared toward a nitrous application than an N/A application.

If you decided to boost the D, it would be one thing, but all motor is just a foolish waste of money.
But with all my $.02 aside, the cam would be a better power gain than a useless upgraded ignition.

actually, that'd prolly be better. after all, VTEC isn't some kind of factory race add on i don't really need it. in fact, i'd rather not have it period. juss less stuff that can go wrong. either way, i still can't afford it 
the only LS w/in two hours of here that i've found was $400 for the engine w/o harness or anything else.
i did however hear about an H20 for sale locally for like $250... that could be fun.
