he papajam....
you need resistive cables..... to get a better spark.

.... in order to get the very high voltage (without inducing a huge radio wave killing everyone with a pacemaker) you need a high resistance to generate a high voltage (Ohm's law).. thus you decrease the engine power if you'd add a low impendance (like a copper wire) to a "modern" ignition system.....
