fora turbo setup you should really be running copper plugs. i've read a bunch of articles that say copperis the way to go for turbo. but definitely go with the bigger magnacore wires.

Noel, here's the thing: you absolutely must check for resistance rating! The best wires will have to be the ones who oppose the least resistance to the passing of an electrical current. Then, go for the biggest gage and you're all good to go...
Usually, the lesser the resistance, the more exotic the material though... so I wonder how expensive this might get if you really want great wires. As for the plugs, most high end plugs will do the trick once they're subjected to high enough voltage impulses! I'd go for platinum tips myself...
BTW: An electrical system has to be seen as a whole. Did you think of upgrading the rest of your ignition circuit to match the potential improvement at the plugs (better distributor, coil, alternator and so on)? Then again, I wonder which of those parts are available to us... Maybe down in Japan they already have all these goodies. Might wanna check with Jing for availability (didn't he say he was going to Asia soon?)...
Let us know what you decided on... and the witnessed result, of course.

hyperground kit:
okay, if you follow the box; it would give you better electricity flow. thus, will give you better burn. as a result will give you 4 hp more on a 2.0L engine.
plus, your dash light and headlights won't flicker w your bass pumping. good over-all electrical effect.
okay boys and girls....that's what the box says. original box from mmc, japan.
we won't know the improvement not unless you dyno your car after every significant mod.
i 'm using it in my r/a. read and see the box at cooks or just borrow the installation diagram from me then buy the wires.
