There is NO replacement for displacement! The 5.7L has 63% more displacement. If you want more power out of it, some off the shelf aftermarket bolt-ons and a programmer will get you there. I don't think anybody wants to fiddle with the 3.5L ecoboost. They have already squeezed all the power out of the 3.5L.

Bolton Ford here in Lake Charles offers performance stuff for the ecoboost with a warranty.

Agreed!!!! It is displacement by force of psi in area. Very easy equation.

buddy got one 6 months ago and hasn't had to fill up yet, keeps a spare tank in the back because it actually makes gas when pulling his 42' Bertram. Has a yeti also, so hasn't bought ice in 3 years either
