UH, most cars have a solenoid for the starter(think large relay). This is because the starter takes a massive amount of power to turn the flywheel and start the car.
What do you mean by igniting? The dizzy uses a coil and rotor to distribute power, no need for a relay.
Also there really is no such thing as ignition, at least the way you term it. Most vehicles have relays to control things on the ignition side of the key, like the fuel pump, but there is no single wire coming off the switch that goes to and powers everything.
