Apologies if this is in the wrong section.....I'm still new to this site but following a pm I've discovered darkbudda's yearning for a european cosworth 'YB' engine and 4x4 setup. I also thought that although its a recent model the AG Motorsport Ford Focus would qualify as a 'pro tourer' so just to make you envious of the crazy power to weight ratio and grip afforded by the above mentioned setup here are a few video's of the car. I was lucky enough to get a lap of a race track in the focus. Final video is of street legal 4x4 cosworth.

Good stuff! Thanks for posting it. I'm not sure the pro-touring traditionalists will call it p-t, but I'm sure they can appreciate it. And sure, maybe it's old tech by now, but when it works, it works. One day I'll have the coin to do the YB and 4x4 conversion on my XR, but in the meantime I'm enjoying 250+bhp and good ol' fashioned rear wheel drive. ;)

BTW, I've got a friend that's doing kits to convert Focus to RWD using Ford's Duratech (I think)... here's his facebook page for more info: https://www.facebook.com/TSSFAB.US
