4b11t swap for a 2015 Mitsubishi Lancer se AWC

I have a 2015 Mitsubishi Lancer se AWC and my transmission went out recently. I would like to replace the motor and tranny with a 4b11t motor with a manual transmission. My car is an automatic

is it possible to swap the stock motor and tranny with a 4b11t motor and manual transmission?

The 4B11T and 5 speed itself is worth more than your Lancer, and that is not including the crazy amount of labor and custom work needed to make it work.

Can it be done, yes. Is it simpler to just get a new CVT for it, and drive it/sell it, yes.

I just don’t want to put another cvt in it knowing that it’s going to go out again are there any other transmissions that will work with the 4b12?

I've seen these CVT's go over 200k miles on the regular. Maintenance and not abusing them to a pulp is key. If you find a low mile CVT, and change the fluids on time, you should be good.

I have 115k miles on the same trans in my RVR.
