The Ford Focus ST is a car that came out in the US in force and was hyped up by almost every car journalist as a resurgence of fun Ford vehicles. The ST is what started Ford to really get their act together and increase their popularity in the performance market other than the Mustang and Mustang GT. However with the Ford Focus RS out and now already gone...which one should you buy before they disappear? Morgan's Focus ST makes nearly 400HP to the wheels through it's FWD drivetrain and is more than enough to give you a thrill no hatchback should. Thanks for watching!

As a St owner myself I will say that owning a St it's like being part of a Brotherhood. I'm about to have a moment will someone please hold me 😪
@@ccfelipetho8954 commit not alive egotistical hater. we dont want you tonjoin anyway lmaooooo
@@ccfelipetho8954 as another ST owner, may sound stupid but seeing other people driving around with the same car always makes my day
Boooooooooooost!
And.....WHEEELSPIN.
What did you guys think of this ST?
ThatDudeinBlue I sold him the turbo he has lol
Car is super awesome

David you ever make it to Houston one day I have a built 2.0 st if you want to review it one day 👍🏼
Wack. All new 4 cylinder acting like it’s a v8 with low tq that’s not even enough to carry it up top it’s stupid. It might be great for street daily driving but if you gas it and it starts to die out mid way in the rpm what’s the point? Bring back the hi rev no tq peak hp 4 bangers!
I've got a 2015 Focus ST with 195,000kms on it. Tuned since 5000kms by stratified. I have not had a single issue. It's an awesome car and I still love driving it everyday
Cam O'Neill 156,000miles 🙋🏻♂️
It’s legitimately one of the most reliable cars I’ve ever owned.
Should I buy one
I'm looking at -16 with 40k km on only
i got 120k miles on mine
My ST boys where you at???
Taylor Bayless here!
SE can I join?
Here but Fiesta ST
Over here big fella
ST3 BOIII
What a nicely set up car! I love the focus st! Great video as always David. You are a major inspiration for me starting my channel and making the coolest car content I can!
David you’re the one channel that still consistently shows the Focus ST love and I really appreciate man. I have a ‘17 with just full bolt ons, JST 93 custom tune, sticky tires, and brake pads/fluid and I’ve upset A LOT of “faster” cars on the highway and at the track. My close friends drive an R32 GTR, a Nismo 370Z, and a ‘15 WRX STI, none of them stock except the Z, and we all stay on each other’s bumpers on our weekly curvy mountain backroads Sunday sprints. They laughed when I came home with the car but now I’ll catch them defending it at Cars & Coffee and on Reddit all the time. Mine only has 8k miles and now that they’re discontinued I’m grateful every time I get in it that I get to spend another few years enjoying it.
ST has always gotten so much hate and I always wondered why...it’s such a fun car and there are so many mods and upgrades you can do whether it’s performance or aesthetics ! It’s why I still own my 2013 ST!!! Will not sell mine I absolutely love it!
Trade me I have a 2017 5.0 🤣 I want the mpg and more room
@@MrAdrian13 Bro, if I didnt have a kid and could use a coupe, id probably trade you....with my stratified tune im probably getting worse MPG than you lol
@@jonathonhinkle89 ohh wow. you dont get 30+ mpg on the highway anymore?
adrian m8 no...since the catless DP and stratified time on 93 I get shit MPG...driving at 4K rpm to get those pops doesn’t help but it sure turns a lot of heads...on highway I get about 22 to 24
@@MrAdrian13 no...even if i shift around 2500 RPM on highway and i cruise in 6th gear in cruise control on a 3 hour ...drivce i average around 22-23...im running a stratified tune though on 93 which dumps more fuel to get the pops and crackles so that is playing a role in the low mpg...normal cobb tune or something may put me a little higher
Can we just take a moment to appreciate how SWIFTLY David is approaching a million subs 😯 I remember when you only had 65,000 subs way back in 2013 when I found your channel
Rather have a Focus or Fiesta ST than that damn Edge ST.
yep, I want to nibble little hatchback to ride around in ... Not an elephant... That edge St is also $43,000.....so it's the exact same price as a Dodge Durango RT, not to mention that $43,000 is a lot of money for a little Ford Edge with a really poorly plastic interior and not fun to drive fast with its horrible transmission....smh
@@teej5619 I've seen prices for Edge STs as high as 50K! I can get a Focus RS and mod it for that much!
@@JDsHouseofHobbies ya see thats crazy..... There are so many other vehicles and better vehicles you can get for around $50,000 holy crap...
Yes agreed
Ford was pathetic to put the ST on a damn SUV. SUV it's a SUV not a race car.
It seems that Ford is hating their enthusiast group lol.
Look what they did with the mustang SUV, not only they put a mustang into a SUV, but made it electric 🤦🏻♂️
For around 20 thousand dollars less then RS, I'll take the mod-ability and torque steering with the ST.
Good review.
The R is a giant killer for one reason...........LSD !
I have ave Quaif LSD in my 2018 ST , different car , no torque steer and goes exactly where it is pointed coming out of a turn !
@D W used yeah
@D W you can also get a used same year mustang gt that's faster for the same or less...
@@SasquatchS550 ya but some people live in climates where if it's your only car year round, rwd isn't the best. Plus turbo noises.
@@derekgardin1512 this is true. My point was more taking a shot at the RS than the ST. I never got behind the hype if the RS's. I went with the cousin of the ST, the Speed3.
Love fast Fords. Lots of potential. I'm currently running a mk2 Focus ST over here in the UK. That 2.5 5 cylinder is something else. Can't wait to start building...
THIS IS A REAL FAST FORD, THAT MK2 RS is better than the ST and the RS MK3s. That volvo inline 5 is the only car today that sounds like the audi quattro sport inline 5. All these Type R,ST and RS guys should pay homage to the MK2 RS.
Same here pal, got a panther black st3. That 2.5 5 pot is in a league of its own
Yep that Volvo 2.5 is a great engine.
@@real_talk1180 any turbo I5 would sound like that.
Been part of the Focus community along with the Focus ST community for over a decade. People upgrade the turbos in these all the time. As for the RS most people that build those go with a 2.0L block and make it into a 2.3L stroker. Lots of STs running around with that setup also.
Yeah bc those original 2.3 cylinder liners are dangerously thin from factory and the reason for blowing head gaskets. That 2.0 is stupidly durable. I'd hate to see what it would do in an rs versus the st.
@Dr Beechas yeah I've learned that since this comment and I don't even think sleeving the stock open deck block from the rs does any good either.
Well then as you probably know most people get these cars as daily’s and will do pretty much every thing to the car except for upgrade the turbo bc that gets rid of the day to day reliability, now if you’re talking about building a track car, fuck yeah rip that tiny ass snail outta there and boost the thing to the fuckin moon
So sad that Ford killed these cars. Very well done and put together car and it sounds great.
Just like when dodge killed the srt 4, I had an 05 orange blast pearl, wow was it fun, torque stear was a bitch if you werent careful. Was looking for a decent used one but most are trashed now and low milage ones arent that cheap. Been looking at these ST's for a few weeks now and want to pick on up personally.
Ford only pulled them from the US market... The rest of the world can still buy them. Infact I'll be buying a new ST in a couple of years.
@@dirtybob2633 Its just sad in the US that this happens. Car companies and marketing teams force ideas and then say that we don't want___. We have a 2017 Forester XT that is no more as well saying only 5% of buyers bought them. We we got ours there was 1 on the dealer lot vs 20+ non turbos so yeah people can't buy if they aren't available. Or in the case of the RS added such a huge markup on the car it didn't make financial sense as a consumer to buy it.
Ford didn’t kill the focus
Consumers did
New ST coming out in 2019, and most likely a new RS in 2020, so they just pulled the latest model. All though I have heard, that the new models wont be made available on the US market.
The ST not only sounds good, but looks good too! Ford needs to bring back out this line of cars again that are affordable, sporty and have descent enough stock power, because not everyone can get that GT... 🙄
Imma build up my Honda Fit and have you review it
.... Lol throw a 70 mm turbo in your little Honda fit 😂👍, have it make like 500 bhp👍👍👍
The Fit has so much potential lol Honda Fit Type R
GE or GK?
I've love to see a K swapped Fit!!!!..I know your post is old
This comment didn't age well. It's so sad that Honda killed the fit, Idk why
awesome video, I have a 04 svt focus I just rebuilt the engine in after lifting the head. block and head machined bored, eagle rods, JE pistions, nothing crazy just a fun car. just bought a 2018 st focus st1 trade in for a deal only 1800 miles on it, just slapped on a turbosmart BOV for a better driving experience for now till I save up more to get it where I want it . good motivational video for me.
I've always wanted an ST, ended up going with a 5.0 S550
great choice man how do you like it!?
I can see dodge doing something like that
You made a way better decision.
@@kohlgossler7083 , honestly it is nice, not as bad as you'd think on gas. I expected it to be faster, but a few bolt ons and a tune and it should be where I want it to be!
that's what's up man, yeah I've heard just a couple select bolt one can make that car scream to 8k all day. congrants on the car man im glad you like it!
I like that your friend chose to do an ST build, and that he had you do that review. I actually love my '14 ST that is virtually bone stock, and don't hate me for saying this, but I actually like how quiet the stock ST is overall...keep doing more fast Ford reviews!
My EFR6758 powered ST depending on tune is 360 to 422. I've surprised quite a few sport cars with it.
Congrats bro.👍
Got my ST pretty cheap too. 13k clean title with 20k miles on it. Currently has 28k🤙
Ford killing off it's cars hurts me so much... I've always been a fan of the focus since my first and current car is a 2009 focus. I always admired the 5 cylinder RS and thought it would be awesome if they had an AWD version. Then the new RS comes out while in college and I'm drooling over it. As college nears it's end, Ford kills off all cars minus Mustang. My dad works for Ford and they've provided my family a comfortable lifestyle but it's a damn shame what they've started doing...
@Mike Butchko yeah but the volvo looks like ass. I really love everything about volvos except their boring style looks.
@Mike Butchko does it have to be awd? What about the fwd version? I might be interested in getting one now. Lol
Its a shame seems like more and more companies what to make uninspired SUVs for the masses. At least Ford is making some ST versions but whats the point. Gone are the days where you could buy a new fun practical car right out of school for under 20k. The few that are left a solidly in the high 20s low 30s with stupid dealer add ons
Probably one of the best dailys ever
This is everything I want my Focus to be. Except the window thingys.
Man David these edits are always killer
He's at the same power level I am aiming for.
Just upgraded my KO3 with a Garrett gtx2860r gen 2.
Nice review.
hows it feel man? im stage 3 and debating either to go big turbo or just keep my small turbo with full bolts and just get a meth kit so i can be over 300 wheel at times. not permanently but when i need it i could spray meth for some idk maybe 330whp pulls? what do you think a full bolt 2014 ST1 could do with meth and catless dp compared to a big turbo no meth
@@ueehurstonsecurity8887 well, I have the smaller of the big turbo options, the car makes 335whp on 91 pump gas, no meth or aux fuel yet.
It completely changes the dynamics of the car, the throttle response, the whole experience is different on a big turbo.
Pros:
Car is more easy to predict the throttle response, at low rpm you get better gas mileage and a smoother and acceleration. Once you pass the 3K rpm is where the fun begins. Additionally, the induction noises are awesome, let me upload a small driving around the block video and I show you what I am talking about.
Cons:
If drag racing from a dig, you need to learn how to predict the turbo lag, also on 40 rolls I have found the turbo lag to be a killer when you race cars on the same power level. I have done pulls with a friend on his Type R, full bolts on, pro tuned, he's got 385whp and I could keep up with him. We did a 40 to 100 pull and I got gapped by a few inches which I think it's impressive since I have 340whp vs 385, I could have maybe beating him if I learn how to break boost, because the lag was my killer on all 3 pulls we did.
I am planning on adding a 4 port's aux fuel from Stratified soon, I am JST tuned, and I should be easily get around 380~400 whp once I am done with it.
Overall I am loving my ST, and going BT made me fall in love with the car all over again, I would recommend it if you have 2500$ to throw at your car.
Also I heard that the G25-550 is even a better option, it spools way quicker than the GTX series, but it's more expensive, you will need a dump tube and external wastes gate right away versus only a blow off valve and charge pipes with the TIAL flange you are required to install any GTX series turbo.
Good luck bro, enjoy your ST 😁
@@ueehurstonsecurity8887 OK, that's the video, check the sounds up.
th-cam.com/video/lR-55GMe7Vc/w-d-xo.html
Got a 67 reg Focus ST with PumaSpeed MAXD OUT Stage 1 retune, and less than 30k miles. All set for sports cat downpipe and stage 2 end of the month and will have just over 300bhp. Lot of mods: helical limited slip diff, RS clutch and flywheel, rear motor mount, Stage 2 Airtec intake and intercooler pipe work, 3 inch catback, turbosmart recirculating valve, Stage 3 air to air intercooler. 289bhp currently, target just over 300bhp (to keep within the 25% increase over stock power and annoyances with insurance companies). It's a fabulous car - lot of fun
That Subaru WRX was the first video I'd ever seen from ThatDudeinBlue!
Never was a st fan I actually hated in it but over time I’ve learned to respect it. This one is pretty sweeeet
2018 civic si owner.
I love the wing on that thing.
Damn that's the craziest pre-facelift I've seen
Yeah I had a 2010 Lincoln MKS with the 3.5 Ecoboost and my god pulling up to mustang GT at the light and destroying them off the line in a big ass sedan was so satisfying 365hp stock. I did a little tune and got 425 wheel. The Ford Taurus,MKS were really Under appreciated cars.
I 100% agree!
what do you mean by "did a little tune" ??
@@mmmmmMuffinz there's a tuning company up in Michigan that specializes in turning up the turbos and tuning Ford Taurus SHOs.... I think David explains it in another video of his.......(but you get back to your question) I think it's like a stage 1 tune.... Cuz honestly going from 365 to 425 could be just a stage 1 or 2 tune, it's not like the VW store where you can go from 200 to 260 horsepower off of a flash
Did they know you were racing? Lol
Dan Carlos you serious right now? SHOs smoke scat packs vettes I’ve even seen one smoke a hellcat at the drags it eats 5.0s search it up on TH-cam 450whp awd is no joke
Come to texas and drive my big turbo fiesta ST. You would love it lol.
came here to say this
I had an ST. One of the best, and most fun cars I've ever owned. That and the Mazdaspeed 3.
I learned that very minimal torque steer is felt when you put the focus or fiesta st in sport mode or turn off all stability features
Really sad Ford discontinued the Focus ST. Very Clean ST. By far the best review channel on here. J/s
Love the ST. Bought mine a year ago and I can't stop putting money into it. The best car ij have owned to date. Don't stop with the ST videos
Working at a ford dealer as a service advisor, you see a lot of focus ST failures. Along with throughout my community, the ST definitely has some compression and ring gap issues under high boost. As for the RS, I’ve seen some pretty impressive stuff since the 2018 came out on forums with the revised 2.3 (which basically means it was put together right the first time around). The platform is new and just as it took years for focus STs to get to this point I think we should wait and see what happens before we go claiming the “ST is stronger than the RS.” Especially with all the impressive numbers I’ve seen out of the eco boost mustang which shares a lot of similarities with the RS short block. Also, the speed 3 has LSD and not brake vectoring like this which is why it wanders more on stock turbo applications. When I had my 3071R speed, with the right set up, just as is required of this focus, there was almost no torque steer (obviously it’s not possible to get rid of it entirely). Good video over all, just a few things I wanted to point out from my personal experience!
Also pointing out the ST is a cheap car which means accessible to more people, bigger following, more aftermarket R&D, etc...
Always great videos! Focus RS FTW though
Nice to see you here.
Was about to dislike your comment but saw it was you so had to throw you a like haha love your videos but i have an ST... Have to rep my own
always
RS heavy, 200 lbs heavier than a base ST. RS also overrated stock. It actually has 325 to 335 hp depending on fuel octane. I beat my buddy's stock RS to 60 and 100 with a stg 2 tune, dp and sticky front tires not to mention the reliability issues with the 2.3.. Used RS's are all over the place on dealer lots.
Heck a stock Type R is 4+ mph faster in the 1/4 than a stock RS snd can pretty closely match the RS 0 to 60 time and thats "without" a fancy high rpm launch control. Launch the RS at 4k rpm and the Type R will beat it off the line.
This car is so badass!
Dude you have got to start finding more cars to review! Not saying that I don’t love your other content. But NO ONE reviews cars like you. You can see how excited you get about each car and how you don’t just like one brand your a true car guy that just likes going fast. Those old turbo Honda videos where sick and the 240sx swaped videos. Let’s not forget the terminator cobra video my favorite.
Bro, I have an ST. Seriously the best car I have ever owned. Torque steer is tough to get used to but stock it is quick no doubt about it. Great review David
The Focus ST is by far one of the most fun cars to drive. I have a 2017 ST snd love it. I've owned many cars including Mustangs, Camaros. Civics, and so on snd even though there are cars faster , the ST is more versatile and fun. And for what it is, it can outrun a lot of bigger engine snd higher horsepower cars. Top speed of 155 mph surprises many people.
ST is a brotherhood, we have a good crew in Puerto Rico🇵🇷🔥
The crazy thing is he follows me on Instagram!
Small world!
David, you should do another Taurus SHO! Your review help me decide what to pick when I was ready to upgrade my 04 Ford Mustang V6. Now I've got a 2010 SHO and I love it!
What is all in that build? I am looking for ideas for mine haha, to make upwards of 400 whp is interesting for sure. I know he would have to have more than just a larger turbo and would for sure need a better intercooler, but usually just changing those parts won't bring up the power that high
I enjoy my ST, would love to mod it like non other after warranty is up but I don't think I will have it that long. I have a supercharged 94 mustang and a 67 mustang both projects. I find myself in need of a pickup. Lol
This made me want to buy one after seeing I’ve spent more to fix my 06 Subaru than a used 41k mile 13 St. kind of mad 😒
The ST is one of the best handling hatchbacks ever. If you can utilize the liftoff oversteer factor of this car, its unbelievable good in turns. The rear sway bar was designed to allow that liftoff oversteer factor.
My European 4-cylinder Turbo has more Torque than Horsepower (about 131 more Newton Meters than horse power).
sick ST! i like it. still love my mazdaspeed3 more, but if i ever need a new hot hatch, the ST is def on my list
Matt Farah had the Focus RS and he was saying he had no problem with the head gasket and only some of them have the issue because they were grabbing the gasket at the manufacturers from the Mustang 4cyl ecoboost box or shelf by accident and they were slightly different from the Focus head gasket.
Light weight 17" wheels on sticky 245/40/17 with a 1" drop makes this car perform so much better. My 17" OZ wheels vs stock setup is a different car. Car is also tuned, I'm guessing the stock set of wheels is 0-60 in 6 seconds. Just changing out the wheels and tires, plus the ford tune, it's a 5 second 0-60 front wheel drive car...that alone is crazy!
I got a 17 Focus ST and I swear it doesn't need anything but a little more noise, tinted windows, and real sound system
Idk, I like the stock headlights in my ST. They look good.
Nice headlights, were can I get those for my ST?
I am still new to the ST world i have a black 16 ST with a few mods and still loving it! Almost a year in the ST world
I love it. I own a 13 FOST. And one day plan on turning it into a stage rally car. Perfect platform
I have a 17 ST, absolutely love driving it.
Lower engine mount in my ST .... amazing upgrade
Oh yeahhh! Showing the love for the Atlanta ST club
I drive a 13 Speed3 and the torque steer is it’s charm!
Eric G I have an 08.5 speed3 making 330 on E85 and 2nd gear torque steer is still controllable and FUN BACK FIRES 🔥
I drive a 08 mazdaspeed 3 and the torque steer is part of it's charm. Building another one now with forged internals and an BNR s4. 😈
Joe Estrada- sweet! Mine is stock and will probably stay that way. How much power are thinking you’ll make?
@@JustcallmeGnarly22 I'm gunning for 370 on 93 oct. After that I would probably need aux fueling and that would ruin it as a daily. Too much could go wrong lol.
Right when I read this comment he brought up torque steer
clean car! awesome video as usual.
Your slow self is here too? Oh god lol
@@BabaYagaRacing you're damn right lol
If the focus st engine is stronger. Why my stock ST is on it’s 3rd engine? So far
learn to drive bruah lol jk
I love my ST , she’s my commuter and my S550 Pony is the weekend. I get 34 mpg when I drive conservatively and a lot less when I want to have some fun
Ive had a Starion, (yes a Starion) 944, R53 Mini Cooper S, E46 ZHP 3 series and the ST I have now is my favorite car I've owned.
I have a 400hp Focus ST of the same year only mine is yellow! And the stuff you said about it made me very happy. 😊
Coming from an ST owner, I've never had trouble with torque steer nor have I ever felt it and it's somewhat stock still. You probably meant to say that particular ST has more torque steer compared to Mazdaspeeds of similar HP.
Also being a Fost owner, im always fighting the torque steer.
All i have is intake, rmm, and a downpipe.
Have any info to back up "you can mess with the ST a lot more"....? The only RS's that have had head gasket issues are the ones that had the *wrong* head gasket from the factory... Not a design flaw, but a build quality flaw (thanks Spain).
People are still exploring how much power you can get from the 2.3L engine in the RS, but the general consensus I've heard is that protecting the AWD system becomes an issue before the engine becomes a problem. Not that you can't use 500 HP with the RS's AWD system, but it may only be advisable from a roll. It *may* actually be fine even if you're launching from a stop, since the system already protects itself by allowing the front tires to slip to relieve the mechanical abuse on the RDU and drive shaft going to the back. The system may even be fine to launch with 500 HP, you'll just get more wheelspin at the front. (I haven't observed anyone testing this, so I'm curious to find out.)
Keep in mind the difference in base MSRP between the ST and RS in 2016 was only 10-11k. That bought you an additional 100 HP and a *very* dynamic AWD system. The AWD system gives a huge advantage accelerating out of a tight corner even on dry roads, but where it really shines is being able to *still* put your foot down coming out of a corner in wet, 35 degree weather.
You can make a FWD car as fast or faster than a stock RS in warm, dry weather on the streets or most tracks by adding power, grippier summer tires, and keeping the weight down (the RS's biggest failing), but it will fall apart when faced with low-grip surfaces.
There's only one reason to choose FWD over RWD or AWD: Economy.
Where do you get your numbers, the RS is like ten grand over msrp
the ST block is better at holding power as its a semi closed block rather than the open block of the RS, which is why most high HP RS' use ST blocks w/ stroker kits
I was worried for you seeing that car pull in front of you around the bend lol
What turbo is in there? And is it part of a kit?
I'm shooting for the same 400 and don't want to lose my low end
Garrett 2867r gen 2 with aux fuel kit and you’ll be at or over 400
I saw one (1) ad for an RS from Ford. I never saw any advertising for the ST. And management says “we can’t sell sports cars!”
You should totally do a review of Tavarish twin turbo Gallardo!
Is there a full list of mods to get to this bhp? 😊
Hey david, I have this idea where you quiz someone on their car knowledge, like your car trivia, but add a twist. Make it harder and every question they get wrong they have to eat a really gross food. Give some kind of reward for winning too. Just an idea though.
yes why not put more thrash content on youtube
I could care less for car trivia or anything about the history those are die hard fanboys that bash everyone else about there car
I made 400whp today without auxfuel or external waste gate no cap only on 22psi with edge auto sport and e30 tune in Denver co
I love my ST , she’s my commuter and my S550 Pony is the weekend. I get 34 mpg when I drive conservatively it a lot less when I want to have some fun
had a 380 hp b14 sentra that i miss soooo much. hope to get my ST to those same numbers some day
Been building an ST for 3 years. It is all @ThatDudeinBlue 's fault... I watched a review of the "white one" WAY back when and it was the final straw to wanting an ST!
Very very happy with it and such a fun car
Can someone explain to me what window vents do?
Allows air to get into the car when you're on the drag strip, since you have to have your windows up to drag race
Or track, but he right ^
Its allows you to extract heat from the cabin in the car without opening the the windows. Some tracks do not allow you to run with the windows down.
Because plastic is lighter than glass
yes sir but these are in addition to the windows. they are for racing to help vent heat or pressure from the cabin. at track days you have to have the window open and this helps the buffeting
so the window is basically always cracked in the back? seems odd to me
M because race car
I'm sure it's just an overlay
You roll the window down it falls out
the vents can be easily taken out
Fun fact, one model of Focus RS shares the T5 volvo engine platform with my C30.
The only reason the srt4 had more torque than hp is because the stock turbo is little and isn't able to hold more than 15psi at high rpm. So they spike boost at lower rpm to make a ton of torque. Like said, this is only on the stock turbo , a big turbo setup will make more HP than TQ in most cases
Awesome build, would like to do some of the same things to my ST as money allows, currently stage 3 no big turbo yet. LSD soon from MFactory. Is there a link to the full parts list of this car? Thank you and looking forward to more vids!
This car was very tastefully done right.
is it implausible to import one from a LHD country?. i hear it is pretty strict, but you guys should have an alternative to importing cars ( without the 25 year rulle)?
How are you not even at 1 million yet? Wtfff
where did he get those side window vents, would be awesome to have in the summer. Sweet ride.
How does this compare to building a gti? Is it more expensive platform to build on?
Where did you get the ST rear window vents?? Fuck’n badass!!!!
Has to be the best looking focus I’ve ever seen 👌
@Devin.St1 on IG or even @Cyborg_ST on TH-cam and IG.
Both very clean builds / real good people.
Your excitement make me excited hahahaha!!
What turbo is in it? Aren't they limited by that headifold? I made 400/420 with a 3071 on my speed 3. Granted I had to hold the turbo back a bit for the sake of the stock block.
I’ve got those headlights on my focus, but I replaced the incandescent bulbs with LED projectors and HID highs
could you tell me what headlights they are?
What are the headlights? Looks nice!
have you seen specs of the explorer st. it is a 400hp rear wheel drive suv designed to compete with the srt durango
I am interested in a Focus St and I need to know if they are good. What problems do they have?
Def going to pick up those window vents for my baby!
No one else notice the collision that almost happened at 0:42 ???lol
5:48 says st owners rarely upgrade the turbos. in reality that is one of the most common mods people do with these cars, almost every aftermarket brand for these cars has there own turbo upgrade kits.
