Default Focus RS technical info wanted for sim!

Morning folks

Not your usual post here, but I'm looking for all the information I can get my hands on for the Mk1 Focus RS as I'm looking to model it for the simulation Assetto Corsa, and obviously I hope to be as accurate as possible.

I'll list some info I'm looking for below, but obviously I'm not expecting to find the answers to everything, but it doesn't hurt to ask.
  • Steering Ratio (or max steering angle inside/outside, as I already have 2,9 turns lock to lock)
  • Actual torque curve at the wheel (not at the crack, transmission loss)
  • ARB rates
  • ABS pump frequency
  • Actual weight (if anyone has put it on the scales)
  • Differential settings (power/coast)
  • Turbo Info (anything at all, max boost, rpm it starts to spool, any sort of electronic control (so ramping down etc))
  • Unsprung weight (long shot, I know)
  • Any Technical drawings, CAD, or suspension geometry info (might want measurements if this can't be found...)
  • Spring Rates front/rear (or wheel rates)
  • Motion ratio front/rear (not needed for wheel rates)
  • Weight distribution (I have 63% just now)
  • Tyre Pressure factory recommendations

Also, I haven't actually started this project fully yet, but here are a couple of pics of some of my other project (Transit and Anglia) to show what to expect later down the line

Hopefully I can find answers, and if so it should help provide a more accurate digital representation of the Mk1 RS which many can enjoy!
