120WHP can fry a CVT's clutch packs.
Get a manual transmission instead if you want to go turbo...I think someone posted here that those are good for handling 400-450 HP.

i using TD04 L15A engine with CVT.

But the 0-100 km/h not much different.

But if compare to 1800CC Honda Civic, i can start overtake him at 140 km/h
2000CC Honda Civic, at 160 km/h
2000CC Honda Civic Tyre R , cannot be done

What i know flooring the fuel will made the 0-100 km/h ( 0 to 60 mph) worst.
I drive my car abt 2 years with turbo.
my CVT still ok. , boost setting with 0.4 and 0.6 bar

if u change to M/T , it will gain much more power then CVT. I think extra 60%

I also driving Toyota vios 1500CC M/T, 0-100km/h 7.9 sec
Fit 0-100km/h with turbo = 11sec
my stock fit before turbo = 0-100km/h 12 sec

Normally i will see my power at highway instead at city
If rolling at 90 km/h and suddenly want to chase 2000CC car should be issue.
Of course, if 2000CC with MOD will lose to them

Hope it help

Thank Clanbuster for ur infos. According to ur details I decided to install a cold air intake instead though i really love the sound of turbo, but still not sure which brand has good CAI system with a nice price? T1R is good? PRM and Injen? AEM?....

I not sure which brand is good. But i did mod CAI and lost low end response.
I added heat insulation and improved and gain back to stock status.

If in highway, normally our L15A with turbo can win normal 2000CC without mod ( exclude Tyre R or racing engine).

U can ask around, someone did stage 3 mod which can win other 2000CC racing type engine.

I dont think im going for a turbo on CVT tranny, but it's not easy to find a CAI for automatic Jazz, some offers are SRI which is a bit louder than a CAI. So confused!

Im running an 08 fit CVT @ 7 psi. I generated 169 ft lbs. & 149 hp, my tranny handles the power just fine and it's been on for over 5,000 miles.

CVT isnt available in the US. USDM fits are automatic
