So i picked up my car On friday, and am loving it. I will post pictures when I figure out how!

I did notice that the lancer is a bit sluggish at lower RPM's, is that normal?

not sure what you mean.... :p

Anyone if some simple mods will help the sluggishness at all (air intake, ecu mapping etc)? Higher RPM's, I can really feel the kick, but when the rpms are lower, it feels like my corolla is quicker!

Yes, I have the CVT. Its a bit weird at first (no gear change rpm drops!), but I am getting used to ut.
