2014 Ford Focus ST-R?

I'll have to think about this...I just listened to a few videos with the MBRP exhaust and I love it...but damn, that price is so expensive! :/

Good question - but I don't have any experience with Cobb so I can't talk about them specifically.

Up to the point that Randy crapped out on tuning my car, I would have said my SCT experience was very good over the years - now, not so much. Personally I don't ever want to be dependent again on one single individual for the tune of my car - so, for me anyway, Randy doing the tuning at mountune would be a big "meh" for me.

Would mountune / Cobb stand behind the tuning if something were to happen that Randy was no longer there? They're a big company with great resources - I can't imagine they wouldn't be there for you. But in that same vein that's the comfort I would get from dealing with Ford Racing - and yes, I know that there are lots of ways of making sure an aftermarket tune won't affect your warranty status, but the Ford Racing solution is the only one guaranteed to do so.

There's no doubt the Cobb tuning that Jamie (and I think Vince and maybe even a couple more ST owners we know) makes excellent power and torque - from the sounds of it, better than the Ford Racing tune - so that I guess is the other side of the coin.

I'm not sure which way I would go if I had an ST - but the Ford Racing would be right up there in terms of one of the top choices. What I do know is that I would try the new tune without the exhaust first to see how it sounds.
