i am Not sure I think it is nothing special (copper maybe) it just stays in the correct heat range to maximize output.

In the TSRM it says which plugs to use, all I can remember off the top of my head is 7MGTE's use a double platinum NGK plug with a heat range of 6....
Straight from the TSRM: 7MGTE- NGK BCPR6EP-N8 7MGE- NGK BCPR5EP11

Don't run cooler plugs unless you really need cooler plugs... they'll just foul. There's no additional power to be made from just running a cooler plug for the hell of it.
As for the plugs, I don't care for the "boutique" bull $h!t... just stick with NGK copper or platinum plugs.

I ran those the entire time my car was N/A with no problems at all. I just don't think they're really any longer lived than platinums and their actually less conductive.
The whole copper vs platinum vs iridium thing is more a matter of laziness than anything. In the end none costs any less than the other, it's more to do with the frequency of replacement.
