auto or manual?

some ignition work? L67 coil packs, good leads

VEII SSV, VYII Berlina, '97 Lancer
I drive a 1.5L lancer and a 3.8L eco berlina and the berlina is a mile quicker than the lancer. To me it seems like something is wrong. Is the lancer stock or a quad turbo, 17 BOV ricer? Just doesn't seem quite right to me.
