yes you should, my last car was an 04 lancer Ralliart. i loved that car, put 80 k on it in a year and a half (total of 120 k by that time, bought it used) and it never ever had one problem. I changed the oil every 5k and never did anything else to it. I beat the crap out of it and she never let me down once. i would definitly buy another one if i wanted a sporty econobox again. Thing had really nice torque for a 4 cyl (it was the 2.4L mivec) and handled really well for econobox suspension with sport springs and struts and a front 3 point brace.

and like already pointed out, its not like these mitsu parts are from a spare parts bin in their auto assembly plant. they are from the electric components company, not the auto devision. The older proteges are especially loaded with these little gadgets.
