I would imagine these figures are based upon 93 octane fuel?
About 91 actually based on the new industry standard...I could go into the Chemistry...but yeah.

Thanks for setting me straight AND subsequent explanation. You are a class act, @LokiWolf! My bad, was thinking platinum expy/navi/raptor were the same... HO, good to know![emoji106]
HO Motor has the exact same size turbo, the material is different though for the turbine. It can handle higher heat.
Like was mentioned above only internal difference is the Pistons and lower compression. Supposedly the exhaust manifold has some slight differences, but I have never been able to clarify. Never seen them side by side.

Confirmed part numbers are the same (6K682), so both Expedition and Navigator would be an IHI K03 with no internal differences. That suggests the Expedition has substantial headroom, which I guess is why the tuners are getting so much more power out of them. I haven't looked at a compressor map, but apparently the K03 has a lot more in it. I just found an E85/E15 pump at the Murphy's down the road...might have to give one of these ethanol tunes a try. Too bad my model year doesn't support flex fuel. I don't relish the prospect of swapping tunes every time I tow.
Not true. The HO motor has a different Turbo. The size and flow are the same but the internals can handle more heat. Ford Part numbers are misconceiving.

How would one spec a replacement part for the turbo without a part number specific to the vehicle? Do you have a source for the position that the HO motor turbos can handle more heat?
