how big a shot are you gonna go with?
wet kit im assuming?
are you going to have any electronics to control and tune the car?
that would make a big difference in your compression choice.
IE are you gonna use a nitrous controller, a afc, to tune, a megasquirt more info please!
You can have it cheap, fast or good. Pick any two.
If you want it cheap and fast, it's not going to be good. If you want it cheap and good, it's not going to be fast. If you want it good and fast, it's not going to be cheap.

Get a direct port kit(taps into the intake manifold). Use stock compression pistons and some eagle rods. that alone should be sufficient for a 100-shot. anymore, and you will need to invest in some sort of ignition to control your timing i.e., retard it. goodluck man. 1999 Black C5 1997 Silver RS Wiseco 8.8:1 Pistons(back to low compression!)

a properly preped motor at 10.5:1 coated pistons some ss valves coated and chamber coated you could do a 150shot but timing retard would be suggested.
