PimpCL23's 2014 Focus ST
yep.... I havent posted here in long time. I mostly hang out in Ramblings and just look at shit hit the fan from time to time. With that said.. Those of you that do remember me, I use to own a 09 Honda Fit Sport. That is now sold (kept the wheels tho)
Now I decided to get me a car with a little more Umpph to it. Saving gas was cool, till you realize that the only car you were basically faster than was a prius.
Well, heres my new car. People keep asking me what did I name it (I hate naming cars) so I decided to go with chriSTine. see what i did there?
Mods:
Cobb intake
Turbosmart BOV
MBRP Catback exhaust
Panda motorworks Intercooler
Cobb Accessport
Eibach Sportline Springs
Eibach front and rear sway bars
Enkei RPF1s 18x8.5
Aeroflow Front and side splitters
Boomba racing Wing risers
The 1st two pics are the most recent

Thanks fellas!! And yes, this is much more fun than the fit. Its a head turner. I get tons of thumbs up from the most random people lol.
Aaron... dude... i wanna roll with u guys one day, but i cant do canyon runs. Brake pads are non existant at the moment... tires are a harder compound (went thru the first set in about 9 months... too much fun), plus its my work car (hauling parts from location to location).

People have a hate it or love it thing with the flaps. I love it.... there are times (for work) where i went on some dirt roads, gravel roads and muddy areas. The flaps came in handy. Im sure i would have had rock chips and scratches all along the car by now.

Yes, yes, yes.
Love it. I've been thinking about getting one for my next car. I used to be against Ford, but ever since owning the Explorer I like them more and more..
I was going to say, damn, bought the car and modded it already. You're like me keep the plates on.

Jealous of the car regardless, now back to my company Fusion and damn I need to update my unoriginal name that I had before at 260hp.com or whatever.

Nice pickup! I love the RPF1's! I had a set on a Prelude I used to own and they were such an awesome lightweight wheel, they don't suit many cars but they suit yours perfectly.

i havent dyno'd it yet... but people with similar mods and tune have it around 260hp to the wheels with 300tq
yup! they sure did! it was the best bang for its buck! most power for the price. no other company had anything close to it. And yes, this is a fun ride. i love getting thumbs up from random people 
my wheel selection for this car is limited due to its lug pattern. 5x108 (seriously.. wtf is that shit) I tried looking for some TE37s to put on it... nothing... tried different companies... nothing. I came across one place that sells enkeis with my lug pattern exclusively so it was the best choice instead of getting knock off wheels.
Thanks man!
like i said bro... i cant. i have a harder compound tire which equals less grip (i need something that would last longer than 9 months) and my brakes are almost done. i cant risk sliding into something on a canyon run. i need my car for work.

Lol thanks... had it for a Year already, then i realized i didnt post it on here yet... so here i am lol.
have you joined any facebook groups for the ST yet? (if u have a fb)
hahahaha.. i started modding the car 2 days after i got it. im still in shock that i havent been pulled over for the no plates yet LMAO. *crosses fingers/knocks on wood*.
I personally have never been against any car company. I believe thats what an auto enthusiast is suppose to be. A person that enjoys all makes and models. Ive been waiting for the ST to hit america for a while now since I saw it on top gear a while back. Plus, in my opinion, Honda started making some really ugly cars. I mean seriously, look at Lexus and infinity... then look at acura... Acura looks really boring compared to the rest. At the LA auto show, literally no one was looking at acura. it was deserted.
Honda needs to step it up

There's nothing more annoying than being stuck behind a tree hugger in the prius refusing to pull over to the side. LOL

I have a FB but don't really use it. I was very active on focusst.org for the first two years or so I had the car, but I'm not on it much anymore. I see you have the sticker. I have the same username there.
