Silent killer.. power + original lancer looks
Maybe later when finances are back to normal put a body kit.. Nothing too jazzy but the modest SFX type, and good 15" 185/60 yoko rubber.
Those were exactly my thoughts.

Better check for costs on the threads but as far as I remember the cost of the engine would beclose to 4-5 lacs.

Which model of lancer do you own and which part was expensive and for how much?

Autocar did a used car review of Honda city and mitsubishi lancer. Lancer is said to be the best used car buy. And while Honda city prices are cheaper, lancer parts tend to have a longer life. Grab the old issues, they are interesting to read too.
