@@chrismp3 No. What you're seeing is the problem with simply tuning for power. Big, lazy turbo and a manual box so when they boot it the Focus is just sitting there waiting for boost then it starts catching then it needs another gear and takes more time to get the boost back up. When it's actually making boost it's quicker than that G wagon and probably a good run for the E class but it spends so much time lagging that they have already got a big advantage before it can do anything.
Yeah, no possible way it's making 520 hp and only running 12.5 in the 1/4 mile. It should be down around 11.5 in the 1/4 mile with 520 hp. This is coming from a WRX and an STi owner (I ran mid 12s with just basic bolt ons on my STi - full catless exhaust and tuning). That Focus RS should be able to run 12.5s with just 400 hp with a good driver.
The E63 is a epic car. It’s just on a different league! Love that car. The focus doesn’t make any sense whatsoever.... Well objectively that goes for the G63 also, but the G63 is bad ass and cool as f***.
To be completely honest, the mark 4 wasn't even really fast when stock. It's not slow either but nowhere near the performance figures of present day cars.
Limitless Trading I’m not so sure. I’d be interested because regardless of the age, even if it got close to some of these cars, it shows it really was ahead of its time back in the 90’s! And I don’t mean a race against these cars in this video.

My guess is he's red lining every gear and losing his power band for the next gear up, my car revs to 7.2k but its useless for straight line acceleration, changing at high 5/6k doesn't half feel make a difference

I’m calling BS on the mountune performance claims. There’s just no way if it had close to 520HP and 700Nm that it would be getting left in the dust by a 2.5 ton G-wagen.
In 2nd gear the Focus is fwd only, look at the tach go right to the limiter. The clutch that couples the rear driveshaft is not strong enough, maybe because it always slips, as the car does not have center diff. The same system is in the E63 but reversed, so that clutch couples the front axle which has a lot less weight on it on accelerations, so torque is much less. It may be stronger too. 4:16 Yes, since 1967 Torqueflite HEMI cars
