I think it's hard to say definitely without knowing more about the app,
but my inclination would be to upgrade the whole thing to 3.1, which
will also give you the opportunity to clean up the code.

Then you can take advantage of the Engine/mountable app approach
if it still makes sense. It seems like that would depend on the degree
of coupling between the admin/user/api parts, but -- by the time you
finish writing tests and upgrading, you'll be in a much better position to
evaluate that :-)

HTH, and good luck,
