The claims are the same type of claims for the Superchips 1865 gas for my 5.0L. They claim openly the 87 octane tune makes more power and torque than the 91 octane tune. Signed up for the forum and searched it onloy to find even the guys at Superchips avoid the 'How does it make more power on the 87 octane tune?'. Haven't gotten a straight answer from them yet ... just doesn't make sense to me.

I am new to this forum, but I am a proud owner of the Ecoboost! I actually talked to SC today and the man I spoke with gave me this information:
91 octane Performance: 53.8hp / 69tq
Performance Tow: 50hp / 53.4tq
87 octane: 54hp / 45tq
The release date should be March 1, according to SC. I attempted purchasing the Flashpaq 1868 Gas on from the previously posted website and it went through, but an hour later was contacted stating it was posted in error and that I will have to wait until March 1.

Hope someone that has access to a Dyno buys one and runs it with (hopefully) great results! I will hold on till I hear a good confirmation on shifts and all around power.
I also purchase the extended warranty... who cares, really??

Doesn't bother me, but it might deter some people from running a tuner.

Gotta have someone to run a dyno properly and realize that there is NO 1:1 tranny ratio and adjust for that. Those SC numbers are all over the place in rpm ranges. We'll see when they actually distribute a working model.
