Default b18c5 pistons in LS?

what are the pros/cons of having type R pistons in a 95 LS block? im planning to stay all motor and eventually swap the current stock LS head w/ a GSR head.

i have the chance of picking up a type R transmission (no LSD) and a type R flywheel as well.

what would the ride experience be with the b18c5 pistons, tranny, and flywheel opposed to just staying stock? how much more with the GSR head?

thanks

Pros: higher compression ratio.
Cons: higher compression ratio.

Somewhere around 10.3:1, that means premium gas.
