Hello Mikkowl,
the reason why I favor the 108s to the MG is that given the already lack of any edge in speed, manoeuvrability and acceleration, I prefer having something that allows to set the game instantly. How good is 5% manoeuvrability more an advantage if all enemy fighters are 2 to 3 times better in manoeuvrability than you anyway, especially if you give up the 1 hit 1 kill option ?
About the split-S, it's the only effective way for the 110 to disengage from an enemy diving on you at high speed. But if you pull too hard on the stick, the plane will shake and you lose actually time to start the dive. Which gives a better opportunity for the enemmy to fire at you.
Of course, if their is enough separation, favor the head on.
