Been reading some opinions that the 1.5T with CVT won't be getting any attention from the tuners despite the turbo power plant, because of its CVT transmission.
There are cars out there with a turbo engine + CVT that do get tuned - like the WRX CVT. What's the difference between the Civic 1.5T w/ CVT and the WRX w/ CVT which has a tuning solution from COBB. The COBB tune for the WRX CVT supposedly leaves the CVT alone and doesn't change its programming.
Is the Subaru CVT just somehow better built or programmed to work with a tuned engine?
