This topic is a bit old, the cvt's can't handle the extra power as some parts are thermally sensitive and would fail at the higher temps produced by higher horsepower. the last i read which was a long time ago, the 2.5s cvt has certain components that arent as heat resistant as those found on the 3.5 trannys. Even at that, those who did turbop up their cvts undid them.

Personally, i would a turbo on it, the cvts like we have are still fairly new in the high horsepower applications nissan has put them in. CVT has been around for a long time but was generally found in lower hp apps like lawnmowers. The CVT uses a special metal band with transmission fluid that under high pressure is very sticky and when pressure is released turns to liquid again. As is, from what i have heard, the cooling systems on these b****es are huge since the cvt puts off so much heat.

A manual i could see the turbo working since its gear driven.

u never know, everything is possible, maybe not right now but it takes time. just look at the sr20de and other engines that the qr25 modeled its self after with more upgarde build up. they were all able to come up with their very own turbo and upgardes to get the hp they were able to get. it all takes researching and trial and error to get to where we want to be. we r starting from scratch now with this new qr and cvt transmission, but it takes people like QR25DE to start everything up. thanks QR25 keep us posted man, its very interesting to c everthing coming along so beautifully. i am very excited to c the out come with those 300whp!!!!
