It's also worth mentioning that the laboratory test report states that the 2017 3.5EB F150 was rated at 375 hp @ 5,000 rpm and 470 lb-ft @ 3,500 rpm on 87 octane, regular fuel.
This means that when the laboratory testing suggested that "the engine torque is increased with the higher octane fuel due to spark advance ", is it also suggesting that the engine torque and horsepower is increased above and beyond the advertised power rating that Ford gave that engine on 87 octane fuel. 87 octane fuel is the minimum requirement to achieve the advertised horsepower and torque for the 2017 3.5EB F150.
