@ SCHN3LL The only advice I can offer is don't buy a car without test driving it. If you can put a refundable deposit on a Focus RS and change your mind if you don't like how it drives, great. Just don't commit to buying it without getting behind the wheel first. Aside from that, research what you like, test drive them, and then buy the one which works best for you.

It spikes to around 19psi briefly but has a normal peak of 15.9psi. Just a tune alone puts the new wrx from 215wheel to 275wheel. Downpipe and intake will put it over 300whp.
