Best ignition set-up?

Ok, Jacob's, HKS Twin Power, AEM, B&M, stock coils, non-stock coils.......what's the best set-up? I've heard that with an ignition booster you can fry the stock coils. Is it better to upgrade the coils to an aftermarket brand of coil? And also there are three coils: leading, trailing, and primary (I think, please correct me if I'm wrong, and I know you will ). What do each do? Sounds self-explanatory but just wanna be sure. Anyway, if money were no option, how would you set up the perfect ignition?

There's already a thread on this. Basically the Jacobs is a capacitor setup that only amplifies one end (leading or trailing, can't recall). The HKS Twin Power amplifies BOTH leading and trailing. I don't think the HKS uses a capacitor. From what I've read the Jacobs is the one that fries the stock coils. Do a search for HKS Twin Power or Twin Ignition.
