Ford Focus ST Mountune VS Focus RS
Rather and interesting read, bit surprised of the out come tbh
Still Love the RS more, but after those figures would happily have the ST.

Less power and torque, identical gearing, hardly any lighter but the ST destroys the RS? Then they say the RS is "punchier" !?
What idiot wrote that?
Pinch of salt for me that article.
