Hei bro.
It all depends on wht u want to do wit the car. If u gonna mod it up to 400whp above then either mivec or not will not make much difference. Because full power will bout 5krpm. So if u in the track, u will keep ya rpm above anyway.
But if u talkin bout street drivin and u want to have quick acceleration frm a low rpm range then the mivec will come in handy. Mivec simply helps to reduce lag at the bottom. But like I said if ure racing u'll be mostly above 4-5k rpm so it doesn't really matter.
So is it worth it?
If u got the cash why not!! But me I drive an EVO 8. For that rm30k difference. Damn there so many goodies to install!!!!! So ignore the mivec or mr. Get cams, bigger turbo, and to reduce lag put in a stroker kit.:)
Either way u'll never go wrong with an EVO

The problem started this morning for my Putra, when i just started my car and driving it out, I noticed engine jerking. Checked engine oil okay, spark plug cables okay. After further diagnosis, I noticed spark plug no. 1 (closest to the timing belt) rusty. I took it out and i was surprised to see that the ignition point that generates the spark was wet! The whole spark plug was really rusty and since it was wet, firing was not proper. I checked the other 3 spark plugs, all okay, with no rust...
