Wrong the RS200 Evo was the rareset model
Fiddy almost there mate
A few diffrence to a normal saff cos on the Rousesport
The car was built for driveability and comfort the aim was to have the best road going cosworth avab.
Orders for these Cars where taken from a selected 25 RS dealerships across the UK and cars where delivered to Andy Rouse direct from the factory then worked on by his mechancs the same chaps that worked on the famous RS500 touring cars.
260bhp/300lbt Rouse 302-r/304-r
A smaller Garret T25 turbo rather than T3 which all but eliminates turbo lag as boost is available from about 1700 rpm upwards.
Re-mapped ECU.
uprated suspension bushes
Aerodymics package inc
Different front bumper which also incorporates an RS500 style splitter.
Larger boot spoiler.
Different side skirts
Rear bumper skirt
Rouse Sport 302-R/304-R decals to back valence and side rubbing strips.
Rolled arches to accommodate the 225/50/15 yokohama tyres rather than 205/50/15 on the standard Cosworth.
Full leather interior (only very few had cloth) which included extra shoulder bolsters in the front seats which were also re-badged as Rouse Sport rather than Recaro
Option Wood pack fitted to door cards and dash inserts ash trays etc..
More sound proofing around bulkhead and under carpets, foam also placed around the car to stop rattles etc..
luggage bar & straps
twin edge wipers
high output bulbs
identification plaque
Initially Andy Rouse planned to build 100, however, the total figure only reached 67 of which 6 were 2WD, the other 61 were 4WD as the cost of these model where around Ł30k
Big BHP figures were not the aim, the aim was to develop the engine to produce more than 300lb/ft of torque. This was achieved, hence the name, 302 for the two wheel drive and 304 for the 4 wheel drive. The 2 and 4 relating to drive wheels and the 300 depicting 300lb/ft torque.
theres prob a few more Modifications i forgot or don`t know of?
PS. a new pic of mine those are years old above
