To be honest I think you're over thinking it. With the age of your coils, a stock or light tune is going to misfire. You will be replacing plugs and coils a lot more often when tuned either way.
Many guys have had great luck with Eldor on high hp applications.
I use bosche oem plugs and coils with zero issues. (Oem turbos 18 psi)
20psi is the base map, we're planning on settling in 22psi on 93 and eventually further (25+) on full e85 when ReFlex has MHD integration. My stock coils and 1-step-colder plugs were plenty for e50 stage 2+, but if they can't keep up now on a mild tune, there's now way they will keep up making over 600 crank hp.
