This reminds me of the old Mitsubishi RVR which uses a weaker version of the 4G63T and also the Lancer Ralliart which uses a detuned version of 4B11T from Evo X. Initially I thought the hardware differences are minimal but I din't know that so many parts are actually different. Thought it was more of a ECU tuning that makes the output lower.
So, controlling the Airtrek on lower speed is difficult? Since if you press too little on the throttle, the car responded slowly but when you press more, the car moves faster than what you wanted.
So, auto gearbox is the bottleneck for the 4G63T in Airtrek... Otherwise, the power could be utilized in a more efficient way. I guess that is why many manufacturers came up with semi auto or double clutch gearbox. To make an automated manual gearbox with clutch rather than sticking to torque converter due to the slow response and power sapping nature of torque converter auto box. But even with double clutch, I heard their response can be slow too in cases where the transmission software is not programmed properly.If not mistaken, Trek engine is de-tuned Evo 7. As mentioned by Edward the bigger the turbo the more the lag because take more time to spool. The car is not under powered if you compare to another car but you feel it is because you will compare it with the boost on and off.....hhahhaha
AT is worst because after boost comes in power transferred to auto gb box need torque converter transfer the power to wheel. something like 2 times lag.....lol
5.9 seconds is very fast. If I am not mistaken, it is even faster than stock FD2R.
