Default c5 selective ride control difference

I have a 1999 C5, with selective ride control. Thinking of changing my struts out, to either c5z06 or c6z06. Is there a huge difference between my Performance setting and other strut setups?

Yes
It won't ride and perform like a chuck wagon.
I did one track day on perf setting and the next event on a borrowed set of c5z shocks. Much better all around.
