Dave,

I seriously doubt that any MMC will outperform a quality
commercial capacitor from a spark length point of view,
for equal capacitor values.  There's no reason that it could
or should.

Of course if the commercial cap has a Mylar dielectric,
then it will perform very poorly, but it also couldn't be
considered to be a quality cap for Tesla work.
