The cat has been out tof the bag on the RS coming for some time now. Like middle of last summer?

There are several Focus ST's hitting 300hp with mild tuning, some you can even buy at dealerships. The first 300hp ST was built about a week after it was released to public. I believe that Sascha, of the forbidden site, has his to 280hp or more. If you look at the sppeeds in the gearing you can see that it is very capable of getting to 170mph.
