what capacitor bank you use, salt water capacitor, multi miniature capacitor, or a doorknob capacitor ?

@alfareifaldy 3.6 nF MMC (multi mini capacitor)

I like it. I've got quite the same coil, but i use a different kind of transformer. How could you touch it? U just grab the steel thing, and the voltage is dividing in your hand's surface? May i will try this, but my coil runs at 180W and i'm afraid:D

@doorm4k3r I used an ignition coil, drived with a dimmer and a 8 microF cap. The setup is under 50 W I think. It is safe. Do not touch the sparks at 180 W, it can be painful. Just use a metalic rod connected to earth through a wire.
