	Sigmund's Ford Escort RS Cosworth page
		When the required 5000 examples of the three door Sierra RS Cosworth was produced Ford felt that they needed a car with the same amount of power but with more comfort and ability to carry the family too.
		Ford knew they had a great engine in the YBG that sat in the the Sierra Saphire, so Ford's master plan was to simply put the engine, drivetrain and suspension of the Sierra Saphire 4wd into a modified and strengthened Escort shell.
		The Escort RS Cosworth was Ford's new rallycar and was much more successful at it than it's earlier brothers; the Sierra Cosworth in two and four wheel drive versions.

		The Ford Cosworth Focus Concept was inspired by the 1999 Ford Focus World Rally Car (WRC), the legendary successes of Cosworth Racing and the heritage of Ford's performance road cars bearing the Cosworth badge that have earned a special place in the hearts of European motoring enthusiasts.
		"Ford Focus has already brought new levels of dynamics and refinement to the C Segment and was the natural candidate to explore Cosworth's continuing road car partnership with Ford," according to Al Kammerer, Ford Focus Vehicle Line Director.
		Cosworth Racing and its parent company are quick to point out that there are no immediate production plans for this vehicle, but Ford is not ruling out the possibility that a performance-oriented model could join the Ford Focus range sometime in the future.

	40 years of Ford-Cosworth partnership - 4Car News from Channel 4
		The company's co-founder, Keith Duckworth, chose the 997cc over-head valve unit used in the Ford Anglia as a good basis for a racing car engine - it was developed to give double the horsepower, and went on to dominate racing for several seasons.
		Cosworth then developed other Ford engines for use in Formula Three and Formula Two single-seater racing, which led to Ford asking the company to help develop engines for the Cortina GT in the early 60s.
		However, to many UK drivers, Cosworth is best known for the road car engines it has produced with Ford - the RS Escort engines of the 70s, as used in the rally cars, and then the turbo-charged Sierra RS Cosworth and Escort RS Cosworth of the 80s and early 90s.

	Tuning Ford Cosworth engines.
		When tuning a Cosworth engine (YBT or YBP) the amount of tuning done is generally divided into stages from 1 to 5.
		Generally the RS Cosworth engines are very easy to tune, especially the YBT, which has a bigger turbo than the YBP, a hybrid turbo, sized midway between the Garrett T3 from the Sierra Cosworth and the Garrett T4 from the Sierra Cosworth RS500.
		When trying to preserve a Cosworth engine for as long as possible it is a good idea not to rev it above 3000rpm, and not put too much load on it before it has reached normal operating temperature.

		Ford never raced Capris as a works team again, but this was not the end of the Capri's racing career.

		Ford knew that the engine response would suffer with the larger turbo (experience gained from the Sierra RS500) but was deemed an trade off on the road car as it was very much needed in the Rally Car, which due to homologation requirements required the road cars to have the same basic configuration.
		It was so planned, that after the inital run to satisfy the homologation, Ford brought out the smaller turbo version of this car, which had much better engine response and drivibility, but ultimately less tunability.
		As the car was launched during the rise of car theft, Ford included all the security measures at their means as standard features which include and Vecta immobiliser, dead loacks and Fords own built in security system.
