You may also want to mention that a higher voltage coil allows a larger plug gap, increasing flame propagation. And performance coils recharge better at high RPM's. I have run into long term problems running 45,000 volts (Pertronix II) through standard 7mm wires. Resistance builds up until they stop passing juice altogether, just like a burned out heating element. 8mm seems to be the lower limit (your 8.5mm's are quite nice -- I expect them to be the only set I'll ever buy).
