i dunno the specs on the cvt, can it handle the extra power or is it specialized for then econo engine?

I know the new audi A4 uses the cvt and that puts out nearly double the hp that the civic does, they are still sorta in the developmental stage, but audi is backing them with their warranty.

actually nonbiasjeepowner, n2o works better on autos.reason is because if yourre driving 5spd, squeezing and shifting, theres a possibility of screwing ur motor or blowing something up really nasty. NOS techs told me a story about an m3 that did that and blew his intake manifold.but anyways,i have nitrous in an hx.i had a couple hundred bucks so i bought a dry kit and converted it to a wet system, works great.and as for the cvt, all i know is there are no gears in the cvt tranny and they are starting to or have been putting them in bmw's and jaguars.it is somewhat a fuel saver because it keeps the power at a constant flow.but i dunno if the tranny is strong to handle or not. ive used nitrous alot and nothing has happened to my cvt. so, sofar so good..

Actually i didn't know that about auto's and no2 i still would worry a lil about some of those small automatics being strong enough to handle the extra hp produced by no2

ha ha no!seriously.think about it. backfire and it goes into the manifold. boom.especially since ours is made out of plastic.unless you run direct port,then there wont be any stupid problems.
