Default Mk4 escort TCA's?

is there any difference?
Does the rs turbo have different tracking control arms compared to other mk4 escort models?

My car has been off the road for 3 weeks due to welding needed for the MOT. it needed a new TCA on the nearside front as well. I have replaced it and now the tracking is about 2cm out on full adjustment

As far as i can tell nothing is bent or broken.

nope i have just had a look and it is a mk4 track control arm.

It's got me completely stumped. everything is as it should be yet I have to hold the steering wheel 90 degree's to the left to keep the car straight.
