magnifier benefits & design

I was playing with pspice while using data from "magsim" (a.c.m.q. is the 
author) and managed by sheer luck to get the numbers close enough
to see a performance increase.

I placed a voltage marker at the tertiary output and also a voltage 
differential marker between the output of the secondary and the output of 
the tertiary.  The latter of the two to see how much the tertiary
was adding.

what i saw was promising, but I'm shooting in the dark here.  I understand 
the basic theory, but practical application is another story.
I saw 180kv from a 15kv/60ma normal TC. (terry's design, thanks again.)
After adding the tertiary, and playing with components, i saw an output
of 237kv.  The difference between the secondary and tertiary coil was 80kv.

The magsim helped me get the right associations of coil parameters, but
I played with EVERYTHING to get those numbers. what stayed the same was the 
15kv/60ma supply.  to achieve those numbers i changed c1 (im assuming this 
means the tank cap on the nst side), c2, c3, l1, l2, l3
AND the pulse width of the srsg. sheer luck i achieved these numbers.

my point being that if i can blindly pick numbers and see a 20+% increase in 
voltage output, what is the theoretical voltage increase from a magnifier? 
35%? more?

Does anyone have any detailed pictures of a magnifier? or know a web site 
that has a magnifier on it? I'm curious to see the physical
layout of the components, specifically where the tertiary is located with 
respect to the secondary.

thanks for your time.
