A vw guy in a Mitsubishi world

Hey fellas, I'm new to Mitsubishi's and anything newer then 1998. I have a 2011 lancer es with the cvt transmission. I'm not looking for massive power gains, I'd just like to get better throttle response. The rubber band effect is getting old. Im looking for a tune or programmer that may help with this. Any help is appreciated.

and re-learning CVT by drive with aggressive .
need kick down if you need power.

But i can confirm , You will get better throttle response after tune.

By battery cut off do you just mean unhooking the positive and negative and then drive it aggressively so it will pick up my driving habits? If I shut traction control off it seems to respond better.

Yes , No one can fix the CVT , Only re-leaning driving habits.

i'd suggest the Piggyback programmer from RoadRaceMotorsports if anything, or any local shop that can see if they can flash the OEM one.
