Default upping static comp.on a k20a3 with stock head

Has anyone gone about boring say .20 over on a k20a3 and oversquare the motor boosting the compression level to 11:1 or higher? How did the motor react to this modification and were the yields benificial for the money/time/effort?

I'm interested in learning about this, but too chicken to try.

Here's a good primer on compression that might help:
