Funny I can't find anything in the Mustang notes about 25lbs of boost either. It did happen however.

Yes it did and it was
not the standard for the Mustang either.
It was an special condition so it is not found in the Flight Information Manual.
In this case, the claim is 100 Octane fuel was the
standard fuel of the RAF in July 1940 and throughout the Battle of Britain.
That is just not true. DtD 230, otherwise known as 87 Octane was the standard fuel of Fighter Command in July 1940 and 100 Octane was in the process of introduction on a limited basis.
