I'm gonna say not worth it unless you already have a highly modified car like daewooluvr.

If you just have an intake and exhaust and a few minor other things, it would be easier to switch them to a new manual Lanos and sell your old auto one. It would probabally end up about even cost wise if you buy another manual and sell the auto. Tranny swaps can be a bitch if you do it yourself and expensive if you have it done somewhere else. It could get to like $3000 for parts/labor, thats more than the price of another manual Lanos.
