ROAD/RACE- Turbo my 08's NUTS
we had to replace the clutch in the test car so that we can do the fne tuning, after it is fully done wel will have all the pricing info out.
have you attempted this on the CVT? Any error codes or shutdown because of the CVT? I'm guessing if the manual clutch couldn't support that power, the belt in the CVT would almost certainly slip.
Judging from all of the previous posts, the turbo will physically fit the CVT transmission, but no one currently knows what the CVT can handle or how much it will take before it decides to fail. Plus we don't know how the ECU will react in conjuntion with the CVT, we'll only know when someone takes a CVT car, turbo's it, and then blows up either the engine, turbo, or tranny. Hopefully nothing will blow and it will prove it's worth.
Are you guys going to turn down the boost for the CVT? i'd imagine it can probably only do 5psi safely.. 190-200ish at the crank? which wouldn't be bad at all.. and when you consider that the 09 lancer will almost get 170 at the crank this gives me hope that the cvt will handle the power... some boost is better than no boost.
