Personally I'd be concerned about guide life and spring life with that much lift on a daily driver. If you have any doubt on your guides, use that for an excuse to do the heads. You don't want to drop valves like the ls7's do.
I heard a rule of thumb on adding a point of compression but I don't exactly recall what it was and I don't want to misquote. Seems like a point of compression was around 10 to 12 rwhp/rwtq, and mores down low, but I don't trust my memory on that. Maybe you can get someone to chime in to support that.

I believe the added quench with the added compression really helps efficiency in the combustion chamber along with the added compression. The two go hand in hand, like peanut butter and jelly.

I'm running 11.9 compression. BTW I heard from a reliable source that the g5 is 236/242 .598/.601 or something like that..mine is on a 114. Your 111 is what gives the power down low, that much I know.

Pretty close but the G6 drives better with the same tuner and same parts.
That's not enough power to justify all that work-
TFS it is

I've never used the G6X3, but just looking at the events and amount of overlap versus the EPS cam it's clear the G6X3 will make more power.
The last 2 parts of your post I don't understand though. I don't think I ever said that his very nice numbers came from just the cam? You have to have great cylinder heads to make great power N/A, that's something you just can't get around.
BTW your car runs very well!!!
