The story

When I was in a Focus ST, the GTI was always a part of the conversation. The following, the heritage, the ease of modding. It’s a great platform that takes to tuning well and performs both as a comfortable daily and chaotic hot hatch. Wanted to give the DSG a go and it does not disappoint! A FBO MK8 on ethanol is properly quick!
