08 2.5s CVT mods

[evynmichael]

i just bought my code red coupe last month. its an 08 2.5s cvt, 40k kms , and i need help. from what im reading on this forum is that the one car you dont buy is the 2,5s cvt. i thought id start off easy with an exhaust, but i can only find one, and even then its not a direct fit, since it still requires a custom y pipe, and cutting things i dont want or have time to do. and then to add there is also no safe limit for turboing it, as the cvt cant handle it, but before anyone asks why i didnt just get a v6 or more importantly, a manual, i bought this from a different dealer, (volvo) so it was the only one, i also live in canada, winter is coming and halifax in winter is not the place i feel i want to learn to drive stick, so my options were fairly limited to this, or a focus. i took the altima(no question) , is there any parts for this car or upgrades i can do that dont require a lot of shoptime (an exaust that uses the same hangers as the single muffler dual exit exhaust the comes stock on my car for example) or any help in this area? id love for my car to sound a little better, and maybe have a bit more pull off the line. my last couple cars have basically been beaters, so my upgrade knowledge has basically been in competition audio systems, and as i have already done that, and am waiting on aestetics, and now i need help on performance.
