Hopefully Mitsu isn't going to goto throttle-by-wire also, so that there isn't any standalones available for the car and I wouldn't want a Mitsu implementation of a shitty less responsive torque controlling throttle-by-wire system to deal with.

according to alot of car mags. The mivec has better seemless power. They said it still has a good amount of torque, where as the honda's vtec and yota's vvti lack a bit in the low end department.
