Yes you can swap an engine from 98-02 Mirage or 02-06 Lancer. It is possible to swap the Evo engine but you will need the drivetrain, custom motor mounts, ecu, wiring harness, brakes, suspension, etc. You will pretty much be converting to an evo, so it will be a lot cheaper an easier to buy one instead.
