Question engine swap

I just bought my very own Lightning Yellow Lancer OZ Rally last weekend and I've been trying to think about what I should do with it. What I want to know is whether it would be better to just go and do an engine swap and put the 4g63 engine into my car (with all the complications that arise from the large difference), or to build the engine and drop a turbo into it. What do you all think?

Why people want an engine swap after buying a brand new car? No lancer driver should be thinking about it until having it beyond 3 yrs.

Heck, mine engine is at 85K, and the 4g93 is running stronger than ever. Now, once it hit 100K, I'm have to tone done my driving to preserve the motor for a rebuild w/ better internal parts.

But Spoon doesn't touch anything without an "H" on the hood...
