beef up bullet proof A cvt transmission
anyone know if its possible to bullet proof or make A cvt stronger maybe like A stronger performance belt etc. I do alot of research and see alot of bullet proof built automatic trannys for drag racing turbo cars. And say if I buy the tranny cooler along with the cvt turbo kit would the tranny still break if I have the turbo around 12 or 14 pounds of boost i'm trying to get 240 hp id be happy with that honestly.

That's rather off-topic but no, there is no way to bullet proof the CVT. No one makes a stronger belt for our CVT and even if they did taking apart your CVT and putting it back together isn't exactly easy.
The CVT has been shown to struggle at 7psi and 280+ hp, even with a cooler. That being said, running 12 psi or 240hp should give you a slightly faster car for about a week before the transmission grenades itself.

possible to add 2 or 3 tranny coolers
is it possible to add more then one tranny cooler like atleast 3 or 2 so the cvt can stay really cool honestly that the only reason why the cvt cant stay alive with turbo is because of to much heat build up right?
