My factory plugs would start it OK down to about 0, but any subzero day and I'd have to cycle them 10+ times to start it. I replaced the factory ones with 12v ngk plugs (don't know the part number of hand) hooked them up using a started solenoid and momentary toggle. 15 seconds will start it every time at -10 or lower. Best upgrade I've done to it, especially since we have cold winters and I never plug the thing in.
Yeah, the nice thing about the 12v plugs is that you can keep them on without fear of burning them out. You might kill your battery, but the plugs should be fine. And it's also a pretty rock solid setup. I love the original factory "Quick On System", but it has several potential "points of failure" -- mostly electrical connections that have to be kept clean.
