This brings up a good question.

Even with BM3, the DME should still have all the safeguards to pull timing and power to prevent knock, high temps, and engine damage, correct?

If you're running Stage 2, DPs & ICs help, but they're essentially just buying you time before the computer starts pulling power, so there's no damage?
Upgraded hardwares are not just buying you time. It can not only cool it quicker (big IC), but also make less heat (big turbo) and dissipate heat quicker (big turbo and high flow downpipe) in the first place, to the point where cooling management capabilities is strong enough to run cool all the time.
