Question To Mivec or not to Mivec?

hey, i got a question about the mivec engine (4G92), is it worth getting? i have a 1.5l carbi (4g15) at the moment, and was thinking of doing an engine conversion, and not waste money doing up the old one.

So whats involved with the swap, i know ill need a new fuel system (carbi->injected), apart from that any steps, tips etc...?
thanks

What model Lancer is it? For an older model lancer have you considered an EVO 3 engine. If you buy it as a half cut, you should be able to bolt the lot in no problems.

As for a later model later Lancer (after 97), try finding a GSR half cut. I have done the same thing to my 2000 Lancer and have not regretted it.
