I think that the difference between the DI and other fuel injection methods is that DI is much more precise in the metering of fuel and the control of fuel and spark mapping throughout the RPM range of the motor. That's why, with the aid of better internals, stratospheric CRs can now be achieved. Mostly I think it's attributable to the precision of the system altogether. It's badass isn't it?!!!
