yep, if you seriously want a turbo'd CVT just call RRM. Since you live in CA im sure they would be glad to hook you up. You'd be considered a modern day pioneer of lancer owners across the world.

If they told us how they got the cvt to handle it, another shop would copy their technique and all the time and money RRM put into R&D would be a waste. They have to keep some advantage in the marketplace. But more than likely the kit includes everything in the manual kit, plus a CVT tranny cooler and different PiggyBack to tune the CVT differently. It might also have different pipping to make it fit.

yeah i really want to see it happen too but i heard so much stuff about the cvt not being able to handle the power and since there is no CVT out there yet i wouldnt risk it!

RRM had a turbo'd CVT car but they had to give the car back. From what I hear, it ran great and very fast. I would definitely jump on this if I had the money, I'm sure the CVT wouldn't break.

if they had it turbod already then why hasnt anyone from RRM said ANYTHING about the turbo'd CVT they had....there is a lot of grey area here...how did the CVT handle the turbo? how much tq/hp increase? How long did u drive it turbo'd things like that is what people need to know before "pioneering" and using their CVT as a guinea pig.
