Don't know about the Trick Shift.

Water Wetter (by Redline) is reportedly good stuff to help the coolant dissipate heat better. Personally, I use it as a little added insurance, but couldn't tell you how much it lowers temps. You will not see any difference in your temp gauge. Check your coolant ratio for proper cooling. Unless you live in the Arctic Tundra, more than 50% antifreeze shouldn't be needed. Antifreeze is terrible at dissipating heat, so the lowest ratio for your weather conditions, the better for heat dissipation (living in Louisiana, I use 30% antifreeze/70% water all year). There was a thread not too long ago about a member having a heat problem, maybe by BigDogJonx (sp?) that can give you more info.
