Bosch TCI (black/silver) - R(primary) = .70 ohms, R(secondary) = 6200 ohms, N = 90,
L(primary) = 3.6 mH, L(secondary) = 30 H, ~ 60 mjoules @ 6K RPM - 6 cylinders TCI
Bosch Blue Coil - R(primary) = 3.5 ohms, R(secondary) = 8800 ohms, N = 65,
L(primary) = 12 mH, L(secondary) = 50 H, ~ 30 mjoules @ 6K RPM - 6 cylinders TCI
Bosch CDI (small black) - R(primary) = .30 ohms, R(secondary) = 700 ohms, N = 78,
L(primary) = .20 mH, L(secondary) = 1.2 H
Bosch CDI (small silver) - R(primary) = .70 ohms, R(secondary) = 720 ohms, N = 63,
L(primary) = .40 mH, L(secondary) = 1.6 H
Bosch TCI (Porsche 993) - R(primary) = .70 ohms, R(secondary) = 8200 ohms, N = 90,
L(primary) = 3.1 mH, L(secondary) = 25.3 H
MSD Blaster (8222) - R(primary) = 1.1 ohms, R(secondary) = 4700 ohms, N = 95,
L(primary) = 4.2 mH, L(secondary) = 38 H
Perma-Tune - R(primary) = .90 ohms, R(secondary) = 10000 ohms, N = 125,
L(primary) = 4.7 mH, L(secondary) = 74 H
As can be seen from the above which were linked to in an earlier post,
the MSD 8222 (MSD's CDI coil) has basically the identical spec to most
all the TCI coils. So using the 8222 coil should not be a problem for the
Bosch CDI, as would be the case when using most any TCI coil.

And even should you be able to somehow measure them "independently" don't they always operate "in concert".
Might the magnetic path coupling co-efficient be a lot more telling of the coil/transformer overall efficiency than the simple inductance and resistance measurements alone reflect.
And what about circuit "Q", or possibly much more important, 1.4 microfarad capacitor (Bosch CDI) and selected coil/transformer inductance circuit's resonance frequency,
