wtk: 4g92 sohc -> 4g92 mivec conversion. worth it?

[illumin@ti]

thinkin bout it ,, but i need to know if it would be easier to get the head, pistons and electricals,, or woulod i need the whole engine.. Since they sit on the same 4g block, i would think that the important stuff here would be the head, pistons etc.... please advise and if possible, point a brother in the right direction.

i would keep the 4g92sohc and modify it

If you're going MIVEC, get the entire engine. May cost you more in the long run with just adding parts

^^^^^^^^

I would get the entire engine and change the whole head and block

I GOT A MIVEC HEAD AND ECU AND EXTRACTOR. THE MIVEC HEAD IS MISSING THE VTEC UNIT, ONE VALVE AND VALVE SPRING. CALL 724-3591 IF INTRESTED

modify the 4g92 SOHC? in the end would it have more pep than if i got the 1.6 mivec engine instead? or would it be more cost effective to modify the SOHC engine?

im in the same boat
wondering what to do with my 4g92 SOHC engine
ive got a stock local ck4 lancer

[SCHOLARS]

I got an original ck4 mivec lancer and mivec does run but is sheit best u go 4g93t and box or 4g63t when u modify and stuff how long will it work for. i considering selling my mivec and putting in ah 4g93t or 63t. mivec does reallly burn gas

[iamjack]

mivec burns gas but you're going for a turbo? i thought mivec was supposed to be somehwta fuel economical until the extra cam kicks in?

[SCHOLARS]

MIVEC is not fuel economical well mine that is but i compairing it to ah qg15 in ah adwagon and ah 4g92 non mivec and box in ah ck2 lancer

[iamjack]

hmmm
thats sucky since im considering getting a mivec engine for my lancer

[cinco]

the mivec mr is the fuel saver version
