Powers page 53: Injury Tolerance Damage Reduction uses Limited Defenses from Basic page 46, just like DR. Which means that piercing (including huge piercing) is a separate class of Limited Defenses from impaling.

If I remember correctly, there are armors in
Basic Set,
Ultra-Tech, and
High-Tech that have different DR scores if the damage type is impaling as opposed to piercing. I don't have my books open right now to check, though.
