Robert Krupa's Firestorm Spark Plugs=Plasma Generating Mini Tesla Coils

[Koen1]

So where is this alleged "tesla coil" effect?
Looks like a spark plug with a larger anode than normal, which logically would create a wider electrical field and a larger volume of air would be ionised before a spark occurs...
If the voltage is high enough, a spark discharge through an ionised dielectric medium such as air could always be considered to be a tiny plasma path for the duration of the discharge...
That's the principle behind the so-called "plasma welding torch". But for an actual plasma stream to be produced, large amounts of energy are needed.
I wonder how much energy is needed to get these "plasma spark plugs" to spark, and whether they actually produce plasma or rather only longer duration spark discharges...?
And I still don't see why anyone would call this a tesla coil... 

Who has tested these?

A stock GM HEI system generates 50,000 volts. I've seen mods that boost that to 100,000 volts.

Regular spark plugs and wires have resistance built in to keep the voltage to a lower level. If you use non-resistor plugs and wires, you can get the full voltage to the gap.

Now, would this be enough to create plasma?

How many volts in a Tesla coil?

Researching this further:

I've found 50,000 volt Tesla coils online. Also, I think that there would be no need for a ground electrode on the plug, just a ball extending from the tip of the plug. The spark can then ground out anywhere in the combustion chamber.

If 100,000 volts straight won't create a plasma field, then what will?

The "Bosch" plugs are similar, and for sale. the 2nd last post is interesting

So I guess these experiments have no real evidence of water exploding.

Faraday had discovered over a hundred years ago that an electric arc explodes louder through a water mist than through normal air. Others since have created water explosions with high voltage arcs. Since 1950 this phenomena has been used in sheet metal forming.

Researchers for a mining institute discovered that the force the water exerts is 156% of the power input through the charge and that after multiple firings there was neither a pressure nor temperature increase in the water. This would make it appear that all of the energy input to the system is released as kinetic force as well as the 56% overunity energy.

Sorry but your wrong."
