i would definantly skip the ZEX plugs and use the NGK copper plugs. the NGK's are normally half the cost of the ZEX and work much better.
for ZEX plugs

Me personally I didn't like them, but they work. I liked NGK's better. I don't believe in the 3 prong set up. You can only get a spark off 1. I fired my car up then pulled them back out and it fired on 1 side of the spark plug.

Hey, I'm all about Zex, but those plugs pissed me off. My motor was mis-firing with them.
I'm using Denso 2 steps colder now.

i made 434whp with the zex plugs in my car with no problems whatsoever.if they weren't running right in someones car it was probably because of the tune.i have used them in my car,my wife's car and many customers cars and they have worked out great every time.

Re: ZEX Sparkplugs: Good/Bad? (lazerus)
the good ol NGK BKR7E-11's are cheap and do the job well, especially with N2O.
that's what i used with my DP system last year and i had no problems with them.
they're a #7 heat range, which could even be used for turbo also, but a #8 heat range would be better for most turbo appl. only $2 each average selling cost, sometimes you can find them for less than that too.

The intent behind the mulitple grounds is to provide more sources for the spark to jump to. It's only going to jump to one ground. It's not designed to have three different sparks.
mine melted anyways so i don't use them..
