Good information. Now with all that said do we also have the forged internals. I’m coming from a 16 mustang that had 500 to the wheels. I know this is a family car but I’m all about mods and style. I worked at ford for a couple years but never researched the eco v6. I was all about the coyote

The question isn't how much power the engine is capable of making. The question is: how much power is the engine capable of making, reliably, over a period of many years.
You could tune the 3.5L to make 800hp. Sure. But I doubt you'd see it last more than 10k miles without any problems.

Ford is using the same 3.5L EcoBoost block in the Ford GT and have it cranking out 647 hp. Given that this is from the factory, I imagine that Ford engineers are extremely confident that this 600+ output is reliable.

I have a 2018 Expedition & a 2018 F150
Both have the Gen II 3.5LECOBOOST engines
Have the E30 & E50 calibrations for both of them
stock had 330 Wheel hp & 414 wheel torque
With E50 calibration 550 wheel hp & over 600 lb ft wheel torque
Completely stock vehicle except for calibration & E50 ethanol blend
Love it
Here is a 5 star dyno chart showing what kind of power increase are possible with 100 Plus octane fuel

550 hp and 600tq are not just e50 and stock everything else. See below, they have mishimoto intercooler, s&b cai, spd turbo adapters and DPs and putting in new HPFPI have a 2018 Expedition & a 2018 F150

Data I posted was completely stock truck except for calibration
Here is the data above the chart
NOW RELEASED! E30 & E50 TUNES FOR YOUR 2017-2019 F150 3.5L ECOBOOST!
Our e50 tune nets 553 horsepower on our 2018 F150 3.5L Ecoboost 4wd 150! This application is all stock with the exception of our tune file. We have the tune dialed in and have just released the new files!
Have it installed on both of my vehicles
Love it

I wonder if the Gen II's come with stronger head bolts? This along with crank insert bearings tended to fail in highly tuned earlier models.

How is that possible the stock plus tune makes 553 but the stock plus IC, adapters, CAI, and DP makes 560? Not adding up
Do you have a certified dyno graph specifically of your trucks? Showing these numbers with tune only? I’d like to compare your stock truck plus tune to the tune plus bolt ons

Base with 93perf all stock for 2019 expedition was
464rwhp
Same truck with all the listed aftermarket parts on e50 nets 560rwhp shown also in green dyno graph I posted

Doesn't it concern anyone performing these upgrades that the fuel system is only designed for E15 or less? All the fuel lines, hoses, injectors are not designed to handle anything above E15....
From personal experience I can tell you what happens when you put E fuel through lines that aren't rated for it....it turns the inside of those fuel lines to debris.....eats it alive

2018+ stock fuel (gen2 ecoboost engine) system can handle e50
2017 and below (gen 1 ecoboost Engine) can handle e30. 5 star is pushing this truck to its limits so upgrading the fuel system is just insurance.

Then why does my fuel tank cover say 15% and below only (2018 expedition)?
From the manual:
Do not use:

- Leaded fuel, using leaded fuel is prohibited by law.
Idk ask someone at 5 star. Plenty of 2018 3.5l F-150 guys running e50 on stock system
