So what would safe boost be then at 10.5 CR with DI?


I figured this to be the case I was just looking for a good explanation, particularly as it pertains to the 5.3 DI motor.


When do you run out of fuel, and what do you do when you get there?

any boost is safe as long as you have the fuel for it. it's all new so there is a lot of trial and error. I dont think you're gonna run out of fuel on these di motors til MAYBE 800, that's being conservative
