Thanks for your video Why did they make the power band like a Fiesta ST...? Thought that was the trade off of a small turbo, I thought it would work like big turbos work and just keep pulling all the way to redline.. more fun than low down torque but then it's less usable so I guess it makes sense really....

I run a GC8 Impreza (modified and owned since 2002) and a Focus RS. Despite the Impreza being 16 years older than the RS it's still a hoot to drive and quicker in a straight line than my Stage 1 RS. If the latest STi was more tuneable and Open Source tuning was possible I'd be out of the RS and into an STi in a heartbeat.

Would recommend you get the front strut tower bar to enable the car to handle the extra HP, as well as the rear suspension link and arm packages; they are extras for WRX STIs, but they come as standard on the S208, probably the same with the S209.

@MrStuwr250f 5 лет назад

Great quality contend Marcus, you are now putting out some of the best quality on RU-vid. As an Sti owner, I agree with your conclusions too. Although, I like the basic layout of Sti interior, the plastics are pretty nasty, but then other than the seats, in the RS the interior looks very low rent. Golf R kills them both of interior quality but, that car doesn't excite me one bit.

@npaul4171 5 лет назад

That was effectively my take. Absolutely spectacular interior that puts others in its relative class to shame, but not quite a comparable degree of driving excitement.

@SoulsSave 4 года назад

@MusicLover1049 4 года назад

With those mods, I feel like the engines reliability/longevity will come down to how aggressively the car is driven. If the owner put-puts around in it, I’m sure it will last... If he’s redlining that’s thing and boosting it up often, who knows. Both my WRX and now STi have been pretty unforgiving

@BenSpoolin 4 года назад

Aaron C. Anyone who buys a WRX or STI to build and not do Subaru shit in it including launches and driving hard bought the wrong car I don’t get it. STI is to hoon not to make 400 hp to sit at 5% throttle and hard park it

@npaul4171 5 лет назад

It's absolutely amazing how much more aggressive aftermarket flared fenders makes the current WRX/STI look...the whole car just looks meaner. This from the factory would have definitely made the car look like a much sportier total package.

Was hoping for a side by side launch and 1/4 miles timing... disappointed ☹️. Sold, in the past my 2012 hatch STI stage 2, E85, riding Porsche now, all new world... I was keeping an eye on the RS but was wondering if it’s more reliable now (2018 2019), also which one is the fastest on those 2 models in this video... (could careless of the exhaust noise)... No offense but I smoke a guy with his STI, same setting and Turbo/exhaust noise as this video, pretty embarrassing making all those “performances noise” and stay behind...

What kind of exhaust is on the RS in this video? Isn't it Borla S type catback ? It actually sounds sensational inside the car as well as outside. I have the stock exhaust on my 2017 RS but rear seats and all carpeting removed from the rear side of the car and the noise with the stock exhaust is much louder now. I cannot imagine how loud would it be inside if I swapped stock exhaust for the one in this video ❤ Update: The exhaust on this RS is a perfect match for this car. Would you list your mods on the car? Especially the exhaust? Very inspiring video. Good placement of front license plate - haven't thought of it before - not many cars here in Europe have front license plate moved to the side of the car. Greetings from Czechia

Really like the look the owner went for though, with the front mods and black hood, it looks hella aggressive. I like how you can hear the turbo on the STI, and a flat 4 just sounds more exotic...so yeah, STI for me. Both very cool cars nonetheless, thx for sharing!
