@Kailani8458 🤣 Each to their own, I suppose. "Tldr" the block doesn't need to be modified. There are plenty of examples running around without it, with over 300k miles on them. It's just luck of the draw I'm afraid, as with most cars. It was revised on the JZDA block on the Mk2 RS. The block mod on HYDA engines, as we call it, doesn't fix it either it can still happen. At least they don't go into a chernobyl style meltdown like the ecoboost does for taking sips out of the cooling system, causing corrosion and lack of lubrication then catastrophic failure if left, following years of class action lawsuits for not fixing manufacturing defects. The Volvo platform is proven time and time again. Long live the volvo V70 brick and the T5 inline turbo lol.
We never got the 5 pot here though in the US. Closest thing would've been the Volvo C30 as it had the same 2.5 5 pot.. Looks better than the focus, imo (2 door hatches will always look better, imo)..
The ST is so so fun to drive. The sound isn’t my cup of tea, I think they sound better stock, but I’m not a fan of any four cylinder sound really (and I own a Miata lol)
Fr, I have a 1.6 but why does everyone draw to dizzy tunes with max pops…. Sounds like the clapped Hondas racing at 2am. Exhaust notes are pretty decent tho.
This isn’t even close to the best sounding ST the best one I’ve ever heard was someone I go to school with, his is absolutely insane. Idk what he’s done to it but man I want one so much more now
My 13 st2 sounds good, huge mod list depo 3in catless, magnaflow 3” with resonator delete. K&n full intake, forged BOV huge intercooler unknown brand it was on car when bought. Msd coils with 1 step colder plugs and tuned by the 🐐 Alan at edge on e30

Miss my ST. Traded up to an s2k…. But the ST gets slept on too much. Gains 40+ horsepower throughout its life, tuning them is crazy, there are factory freaks, they love e85(just need the extra injectors), and there is a lot you can do by just those things. Like 320whp kind of good. Plus they have no right to sound as good as they do, collector heads typically sound terrible, but the focus ST is zesty.
