Not sure why the word plasma is used.....seems to imply that combustion gases will reach the plasma state under this spark 
I enquired about BBIs product but received no reply...maybe because I said I was Canadian |
The only advantage I can think of is that more secondary windings = higher voltage. This would enable you to run increased plug gaps as the higher voltage coil will jumg across a larger gap, creating a larger spark which will more robustly ignite the F/A mixture. I have my doubts that it would make any difference in a stock Boxster. there is a point of diminishing returns. Porsche has likely optimized the ignition system to provide all the spark the engine needs. If you were running with a blower or very high compression pistons then there may be some benefit.
