How about the product description?
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>This revolutionary design allows spark energy to accumulate in the capacitor until
the voltage reaches the ionization point.
At that split-second, the entire power of the stored spark is discharged at once.</div>

Inazma must have hired someone from the Oakley marketing dept.

Rediculous, I agree with REDZ. the ignition circuit is an inductive circuit. capacitors cancel inductance. that would be a poor choice of wires from an electrical standpoint. I'd get one that has an inductor inline rather then a capactior.
this might make a more steady spark, but definately not bigger or better.

ngk = cheap good replacement wire made by a company thats been around FOREVER
prd = more expensive pretty wire which would net you a extra .00001hp if anything at all (it hasnt been proven if the prd are any better performance wise...the one test we have was old wires vs new prd wires)
me personally im not all about pretty so i would get the ngks you can find them on ebay once and a while for like 50 shipped click here for ebay link

BTW, I just talked to Ken at PRDOnline, the PRD's have a lifetime warranty, contact him to get your free replacement wire.
