Default RE: Smallest CM-6 spark plug boot

The CH ignition systems that used a rubber boot that had the wire braid from the spark plug wire gathered up and gounded at the plug base used a resistor type spark plug
Yes, but what is the difference from an RFI perspective? A resistor type spark plug requires a resistor inline with the high tension lead before the plug, the other type does not. So you can remove the resistor, but does this type of boot have any effect on the interference that may be emitted?

If it does, can you cover the rubber boot with a wire braid to have the same shielding effect?

Thanks
