Pinging noise

What could be wrong with my 2004 F150 (Triton) that would cause a pinging noise from the passenger side when I apply medium pressure to the gas. There is no pinging when I let off or when I give more.

Possibly spark knock. Does it do it on high octane gas?

Which engine? Is it stock or does it have mods?

The engine is the 5.4 Triton and no modes have been performed. It does it using High or Mid octane.

Put a couple bottles of chevron techron or gumout with PEA in a tank of gas and run it through.
