I think it would be pretty expensive to swap and engine and convert the tranny. It would've been easier to have bought what you wanted originally, and cheaper too.

All 2008 Lancers; DE, ES, and GTS have the 2.0 MIVEC. Try lifting up the hood and see the MIVEC clearly written on the motor cover!

My bad, did not realize the DE did not come with a engine cover. Was not trying to "be a dick" Was simply stating what I thought was common knowledge that all 2008 Lancers, besides the EVO were a 4b11 with the 2.0. Thanks for pointing out a simple mistake. Sorry for not being perfect! He could open up the glove compartment though, and read the owners manual like most new car owners do! By the way, GO HEELS!!!!!!!!!
