15% plus IK22 - can't say that I noticed a change.

Not a big investment to try

I run IK-24's, Nology, and Pilo CP.

Went with the 24's over the 22's as I live in the furnace of sothern AZ. Just wanted that step better in pre-detonation protection and performance. I have no issues, except a quite rough idle when it is really cold out here.

BTW really cold here is under 30F, but never colder then 20F....hehehe....

No don't change them. It warms up quick enough.

I'll need to ask my son what's going on in Tucson....... he lives there
