You had me confused there when you said IPA. If you're looking to impart citrus it's an APA, not an IPA, IPA's are traditionally brewed with English hops......
If you can find it Nelson Servignon....Nowt better
I wouldn't describe NS as Citrus, more tropical fruit, Galaxy would be closer.
For true citrus try Cascade as puravida said, or a combination of the US 'C' hops, you could even try Styrian to get closer to IPA :drink:
 
I recently used goldings for bitterness and cascade for aroma, turned out really well lovely beer
