Okay, I knew that what I had probably wouldn't be enough, but I didn't know 
everything you would need
>1)  secondary diameter, winding length, and wire size.
 3 1/4 in. in diameter, 10 in., and no idea (bought it as a kit and couldn't 
tell you tell size by looking at it)
>2)   Primary cap size...no. of beer bottles, if that's what you are using
I'm using a bought a cap (in the kit) I know it goes to 10 kV but don't know 
it's value
>3). primary inner diameter, tubing or wire thickness, and spacing. 
4 1/2 in, couldn't tell you, and 1/4 in.
>4) toroid dimensions 
Coffee can with aluminum foil covering it to smooth it out (not a permenent 
setup)

I know not knowing all this makes me look stupid but luckily it is my first 
and largest REAL coil I've built. If this info isn't enough it is Information 
Unlimited's BTC3 Tesla Coil if you want to look it up. I figured a coil kit 
would be a fast way for a young/new coiler to get started.
