Put your old ignition module back and make up a jumper to jump TD0 and TD1 wires in the pulse amp socket. Keep it in the car with the new amp module. Then replace the wires; if they are 95K old they are well overdue (around $30 at eEuro). You can check them by spraying water on them in the dark too-it's a pretty effective test for leakage. Bad wires usually evidence their weaknesses in wet weather but would not give the no-spark.
Then wait and see see if it re-occurs. The ignition circuit enables those relays by the ECU but doesn't receive power from them. I suppose in a rare instance you might have so much voltage drop across one that it may start affecting other circuits but I don't think it's likely. If/when it happens, try the jumper followed by the module. Try the jumper now too, to see if the spark looks better with it in. I assume all your coil readings were in spec.
