You are not using the calculator correctly.

USDM ls motors are 9.2:1

JDM ITR pistons would put you at 10.1:1 on a stock ls motor (ls head and block assembly.)

JDM CTR pistons would put a stock ls longblock up to 11.4:1

They have a higer dome, it's common sense man.

And yes, it's safe, but from talking to the people i have it seems that the B16A pistons are the best bet as they are safER and lighter, which is much better.
