People often forget that the only thing that really matters for your "buttdyno" is power to weight ratio.. HP on it's own is a false metric.. NM more accurate anyway. +25hp/+100tq on an AWD monster like that means a lot less than it would for a light FRS... This is assuming your lancer was not weight reduced.
I do agree tho... don't sell, don't go FI. And @OP if you think a mustang will be fun to drive in comparison just remember that not so long ago those still sported truck suspension aka solid rear axles..

The power curve is what matters. My evo makes 350ft-lb of tq at 2,500 rpm while my frs makes about 147 ft-lb at the same rpm, which makes the evo actually a lot faster since the power ratio is almost double for the evo at the lower rpm range. Along with the overall higher peak tq, there is a higher hp average along the power curve for the evo.
