lets say that i want a opening that is for instant pressure and offence. i am currently trying a more offensive play style. if i did not care about defence what opening should i play.

If you want to play offensive chess make sure you have all your players in the field and occupy the center. Make sure your king is safe, without a safe king it is useless to attack.

The most aggressive players were Tal, Fischer, and Kasparov.
They played Najdorf Sicilian and King's Indian Defense as black and Ruy Lopez as white.

Kasparov only played the Kings Indian briefly.  Maybe a decade.

He was a Modern Benoni player before becoming world champion, and started playing the Grunfeld in the 90s, and permantly put the Kings Indian to bed after getting smacked by Kramnik in the mid-to-late 90s by the Bayonet Attack.

Catalan as white, French and Orthodox QGD as black for power initiative and attack but at the cost of sacrificing material and making positional concessions

At your rating range play open games as much as possible, get a book on Morphy's games and any decent book on attacking. Also probably it makes more sense to avoid very theoretical openings, i.e. the Ruy.
