DIs run 2-3x the pressure of IDI so I don't think it's as simple as "tweaking" the IP. You might tweak 10-20% more pressure. You're not going to get 20,000 psi out of it.

The DI im thinking of is waay under that. the DI engines i used to rebuild, 2100 psi is what they used to run at..

There is no way you or anyone else is going to change a 4 cycle into a two cycle. First of all, the 2 cycle has valves in head, either two or four, but they are all exhaust. It doesn't have intake valves. The way it gets it's intake is through an air system built in the block and a set of ports around the lower part of the cylinder bore. Then when the piston is at the down part of the stroke, the pressureized air from the blower is ready to surge in on top of the piston. Then the piston goes up and closes off the air flow, the air is compressed, fuel is squirted in, and "kazaam" you have your power. Now figure out how you will do that on a 617. And no PawoSD, truck two strokes are not limited to 1200 rpm. The pair I had, ran 750 at idle, 2850 for full power and 3100 or 3200 redline.
