Does anyone know how much can be taken off to increase compression on gen 4s?

I see threads about gen 3s but is there a reason this is not done on gen 4s?

Gen 4's have a weak piston and can often fail from detonation. On our street performance engines with the .028 headgasket, compression was raised to
10.1, but 94 octane gas was required.

I'm planning to change pistons to try to get to 11:1, 11:5:1, do you what cc the stock combustion chamber is?

10:1 seems low for 94 no?
