humm ok! I may be wrong, but as a mecanic with all the courses a had in that domain, i learned that with the new ''standards'' of electronic injections now, if an ECU read a different value of A/F ratio added with all other sensors signals, automatically the ECU will re-adjust the stoquio metric value (14.7/1) to compensate! For the Injen CAI, maybe the MR technology was develloped to manage the airflow ratio to trick a bit the ECU.
I'm wrong????
Maybe the Canadian ECU is different from the US, but at my point of view, the only difference i can see is if you have de PZEV or the FED one. So, maybe the emmissions controls of the ECU may be different.

Evo_soul, I don't understand how you reached the conclusion that the ECUs are different. You put the car on the dyno yet you have no US-Spec control to compare to.

We have confirmed the Canadian Spec ECU issue on 2 2008 Lancer models and 1 2009 lancer model. 2.0L engine for all of them. This ECU issue is suspected on the 2.4L engine variant but not yet confirmed. That said, this unique ECU behaviour has already been observed and confirmed with Works Engineering in our consultations with them on the matter. The logic is no one sees more ECU's from across north America then the boys at WORKs
Their stories on the behaviour are similar and even more puzzling.

we do, and we have , brief testing was done on a USA spec car driven up from Buffalo, he will return again so we can conduct our testing and validation of the CAI results for the regular lancer.

Do not you know the ECU of the rest of the world? america latina o centroamerica?
correction, the Canadian ECU doesnt re-adjust itself. lol its a zombie

Yes mitsubishi did infact design different ecu's. The one here in SA is semi-adjusting, but runs quite passively. The only way to change this is with a reflash.
