Default Spoon/Mugen headgasket with Toda B's

Having read some of the posts i found in a search, I have another question. People have seen minimal gains with just the factory cams and an aftermarket headgasket. Someone quoted .4 raise in compression with the JDM motors and .2 with the USDM motors (with the Mugen gasket).
Now I also know that Toda supposedly loves some compression along with their cams(at least with the C's). Just trying to figure out whether it's worth it or not to get a thinner headgasket when I get my cams. Any one have any experience here?

Both are good and the amount of compression they raise is the same be it us or jdm engine, They claim .4 but its more like .35
Most cams like higher compression, Todas JUN Stock etc.

So are you saying it's worth the extra money to get it when I get the cams?

What about you store owners out there? WHat's you advice?
