I've been seeing a lot of the TR6's now... I only have the basic bolt ons... is it still worth it to change to those that are a heat range cooler?

Because it's a ls4 is irrelevant, stick heat range and the amount of timing on a stock motor makes it knock alot. The tr6ix help oUT alot in fighting kr
