The automatic version’s transmission is all manual only difference is that a computer is doing all the shifting swap out the steering wheel with an aftermarket one and buy a universal paddle shift kit.😉
Beautiful looking RS. I recommend the Precision Turbo or better as it will alleviate back pressure returning to the heads and moves the torque to the right of the powerband saving your rods. Even with the stock motor you can tune it with the Precision turbo to just 400-420whp for safety reasons on the stock block....You might ask why spend money on a turbo to make the same power??? Well on the stock turbo you can make 400whp but that's peak power but by the time you reach redline your hp has tapered down and you are no where near 400, more like 350whp at redline trust me I went that route b4 upgrading the turbo. The stock turbo cant sustain 400whp the entire powerband just peak numbers..With the Precision turbo you make 400whp and hold that power all the way till red line (way more top end) while with a nice flat powerband vs a peak hp that drops and in my opinion saving the rods and less possible backpressure to the heads due to being a bigger turbo as long as you keep it closer to 400whp on the stock motor. On e30 it spools fast too. Trust me I'm at 440whp on mines and no regrets. 420whp its a sweet safety spot tho!!!!!! With that said man I give you props. Your car looks awesome!
I absolutely love the build, I actually just got a focus RS yesterday! Been chasing one for years since I was a young kid finally making enough money to afford one but I would love to know exactly what wing you're running and the body kit as I think I'm going to get them myself they look fantastic. thanks so much
@@TMWYT yeah it was I'm just dumb and commented before I watched it, I just saw the b-roll at the beginning and got way too excited. Absolutely love the build keep it up
I really liked your review. I have a 17 RS and this gave me some great mod ideas (racing harness, intake manifold). Hope to see more on this car, he’s done a great job!
I love my RR FoST...but always wanted the RS in RR. Looks clean! A bit aggressive for my taste but Id give you a huge thumbs up and a smile if I saw that on the road! but..one of my first mods..you did all that work and are still running the prop rod?! $100...redline performance hood struts. hands down one of my fav mods btw..my 2016 ST is FBO, e30 tune from Brian at JST as well..super quality guy, responds sometimes in MINUTES!
@@TMWYT that’s crazy! No camber plates? I have friends who has about the same offset with coil-overs and camber plates with no rub. I wonder if the difference is the total offset as a result of the spacers?
Camber plates yeah. But he runs a track stance with minimal added camber. The main reason is the adapter spacers in order to run 5x114 wheels on the focus, they add I think around 25 or 30mm
Yeah! Everyone likes different things. That’s what great about cars, so many different choices and ways to change or things to do. Doesn’t matter if anyone else likes it, only matters if you like it👌🏼
Definitely getting a rs, how did yall solve the cooling problem? I've heard if ran hard they overheat and I've read it's prone to transmission failure and headgasket blowouts due to the headgasket not actually being made for the rs but the mustang or something like that.
classy RS. a few months after owning mine I smoked a baby deer, didn't break my fog but the trim popped off and it broke the actual mount for the fog light, so its just sort of rattling around in there. also fuckin hit a possum, but it was short enough to go under the bumper. it was gross, i looked underneath and could see a hairy piece of possum skin hanging from the bottom of the car. i've literally never hit an animal in a car, and after buying my RS i hit two in the span of a couple months.
I used to have a 07 civic SI and there was a span where I hit 1 bird and about 3 birds flew straight into the side of my car like Kamakazi pilots. It all happened withing months of each other out of the 10 years I owned that car.
@@nightmaster6381 so weird. i now have a bmw wagon that's lowered, much lower than my stock ride height RS, i hit a opossum in that too lol no damage thankfully. BTW, don't buy a lowered car/lower your car if it's the only vehicle you own. this is the 2nd lowered vehicle ive owned as my only vehicle and it SUCKS. You really don't realize until you live with one
@@dingusmagee3326 Wow I'm surprised there wasnt any damage done. A lowered BMW wagon sounds cool, dont think I've ever seen one of those by me. I agree with you on the lowered car thing - I love the aesthetic of lowered cars and might do that only if I had multiple vehicles. With lowered vehicles, sometimes because of traffic situations you cant make moves to prevent damage. Even on roads you may be familiar with in your normal ride height car, you drive that same familiar road for the first time in a low car and you'll discover dips and bumps you never realized were there. Sometimes cops will pull you over for making evasive moves and say you were driving erratically or loss of control of vehicle, ect.
TMW YT we have something similar it’s an airtec lip spoiler but requires no drilling just glue but I’m scared of it coming off hahah.. yours looks better 😫😁😎💎
I just started to cry cause i want a RS so bad dude and literly ive always wanted one like that just like that 😭😭😭😭
Send it bro! Life’s too short to drive boring cars
@@TMWYT true i cant wait to get one
I love mine so much!
I really want one badly too

Great vid, I recommend a dead cat for your mic set up for your outside interviews to reduce wind noise.
Thanks for the tip, I just ordered one on amazon! :)
@@TMWYT could have used the one he hit

Everything should have been shared in this video, we will be making an updated one soon also. Glad you were able to cop your dream car man! 🔥
@@TMWYT yeah it was I'm just dumb and commented before I watched it, I just saw the b-roll at the beginning and got way too excited. Absolutely love the build keep it up
Sick color man, great red!
hOLY shET! tHAT IS NICE! Well done.
Thank you!!
I feel like the RS sounds exactly like a VA Wrx. Especially with that turbo whistle
I really liked your review. I have a 17 RS and this gave me some great mod ideas (racing harness, intake manifold). Hope to see more on this car, he’s done a great job!
Thanks man! Great ideas!🔥
OMG I know that guy 😍😍😭😭
5:56 “rip to that cat”😂
Rip cat? He's catless
What editing software you use? Also this rs is pretty much what my st will look like this summer 😂
I love my RR FoST...but always wanted the RS in RR. Looks clean! A bit aggressive for my taste but Id give you a huge thumbs up and a smile if I saw that on the road!

btw..my 2016 ST is FBO, e30 tune from Brian at JST as well..super quality guy, responds sometimes in MINUTES!
Thanks man! I’ll share this with my friend who owns the RS and let him know 👌🏼🔥
Ay yo can I get a ride I wanna build one as my next car I recognize the background I live around there
Great videos my dude. Invest in a lav mic tho, please. 🍻
Yeah this audio wasn’t the best with the wind, sorry about that!
Yes yes focus rs mk3 👍👍🤙🤙👌👌👌👌
Sounds awesome some people buy cheap exhausts and ruin the sound!
Thanks man! Yeah it sounds so good 🤤🤤🤤
That's why you're rubbing, because you're on lowering springs. Beautiful car.
Thanks man! Still rubs even on the new KW coilovers actually, it’s because he runs a supper aggressive wheel and tire as low as possible. 🔥

Rs is my favorite focus and the st
Looks good and sounds angry 👍😀
Thanks man!
I like the car!
Whatever floats your boat 🚣♀️

To combat heat he went with a vented hood and has a huge fmic, he hasn’t had any issues with the car yet

Very nice build. What does this guy do for a living?
He’s installs security systems for businesses and homes here in Utah 👌🏼
Stunning mate !!!!
Thank you!!
I’d love that spoiler extension but they don’t do it in England 😫
Oh no that’s the worst 😢
TMW YT we have something similar it’s an airtec lip spoiler but requires no drilling just glue but I’m scared of it coming off hahah.. yours looks better 😫😁😎💎
Oh yeah might fly off 🤣

Yes yes 😉😉👍👍👍👌👌👌👌
Bro never touch another mans shift knob with out asking😭 especially not like that
I fondle all my friends shift knobs 🤪😫🤣🤣
I can't find the gurney anywhere! i want it so baaaaaaaad!!!
The company that made it went out of business, so it’s gone 😓😭
Should have put the prices too, I’m trying to fix up my rs
Sorry man, so many mods to list and I didn’t buy them. You should be able to look them up tho :)
TMW YT it’s cool thanks ! I dm you on Insta keep in though maybe we can make a video in the future!🤙
What camera are you using?
Sony A6300
If you want your fender flares color matched. Don’t go to that guy that did those lol
Lmao we did it in my garage with rattle cans and it looks fucking perfect. Make sure to check the vid out on my channel! Thanks for watching 😂🔥
FBO. Stock turbo.
Yes, clearly stated in the video :)
Engine first! Spent all that money on the outside when it could of went to the motor. Mountune that thing out for 500-600 whp
It’s big turbo now bubs
@@TMWYT excellent news bubs
If its an ST its not an RS no matter what you throw at it
Good thing it’s an RS!
I have that car. The estetics done to it are awful. Power mods are ok but that’s it. Almost looks like a ricer now.
that rear wing gap is hilarious...nice try ST
It’s an RS bro🤣🤣🤣 thanks for watching tho 😘
Y u wearing a collar
I like the way it looks :) Thanks for watching!
Exhaust setup?
3in Miltek catless dp and Agency power Catback
RS wings on an ST is tacky af! Coming from an ST owner.
Right!! 😂
