Default plugs and coils

I'm very new to the modular 4.6. I have a 01 gt with some exhaust work and a cold air intake. I'm looking to do some performance improvements that are inexpensive, I have a budget and the budget is called the wife!!!!!! I was thinking of starting with plugs and coils, I just don't know what is preferred and what will work best. It is a daily driver so I can't go with anything that is too radical and will do more harm than good. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

dont waste your money on coils unless your pushing really high boost a lot have gone in the 650+ range with the stock coils...

as for plugs just get any copper plug stay away from platinum

you would be better off spending the money on a c&l,trick flow accufab or dragon elbow and a throttle body

but if you dont have them i would do gears... if you plan on staying on motor I would do a4.10 if you plan on a blower down the road go with 3.73
