So.. how do you explain AMG, Alpina, TRD, Mugen, AMS and all those aftermarket tuners that make the original car 10x better? You can argue they have support from the manufacturer, but that's about all they have. The manufacturer doesn't support their cars or anything, just the name association.
Efficient as manufacturer? My ancient old Wira (which has a Mitsubishi engine if you don't know) is working better than it did when I first bought it. All modifications were DIY-ed except for machining, that one goes to the ah-chu ah-kao metal shop to do based on my requirements. My FC is better than stock, my base power figures is better than stock and back then even the 3-speed gearbox was still around and doing better than some if not most manual equivalents.
Highest 15km/L, lowest 11km/L with a heavy foot and/or sensible driving. 94whp vs the 80whp stock (mines an auto, so stock should be 74whp thereabouts). Maintenance is exactly the same as stock.
Not turbo charged. And definitely not big on motorsports. I do once in a while but that doesn't affect the car whatsoever.
So are you telling me Mitsubishi were a bunch of fools who couldn't do better than self-taught DIY-er like me? Or are you calling me a liar?
AMG, Alpina, TRD, Mugen, AMS, etc, they are at least something like licensed modders in cooperation with carmakers. Therefore, these mods are professionally done as they done proper calculation and those air intake, exhaust, etc were done specifically for the make/models that they are made for.

We are talking about those who pull piping and install turbocharger, exhaust on their own here. If they only get 1 or 2 parts from TRD but the piping for air intake and exhaust are made of dunno where they get material, this is where the problem comes.
This is for those who still wanted to argue about ori Lancer GT '07-12 vs Inspira:
None of you bunch can tell the difference on the kerb weight Lancer GT 1385kg
compared to Inspira 16" rim 1335kg while with Inspira 17" rim + bodykit only at 1350kg. THis is not obvious enough on the difference. Stop taking the downgraded GT on website to compare. Who is the troll, you bunch ofcourse that rely so much on website. MMC technical department already hinted where the difference. If you bunch still unhappy and wanted to clarify further, check with MMC technical department. Why so afraid to check with them?
