My guess is that you will move the torqe curve up. Keep in mind that the SVT ususlly has much higher compression, which gives a nice pop to the low RPM torque.

the .3 compression points are pretty low actually. The magic is in the cams, not much from the compression.

The headers combined with the headers will give you a big low end torque boost and the cams will take care of the top end. The combination is awesome. As long as you keep using a muffler, resonator and catalytic converter...even straight through designs, it will not be too loud. It will sound better, a bit more aggressive.

Would a rechip change the compression or is that mechanical?

It's mechanical.
