2012 maxi 4.1l tune m90

So i want to buy the brian crower 4.1 stroker kit, have it installed at my local shop. If everything goes well i would like to fit a eaton m90 supercharger on after which i have seen done on a few maxi's. My question is, I have a CVT and Im not sure how much it will hold, has anyone really pushed these thing or am i going to be the 1st, i would assume i need a bad *** tranny cooler also if i was going to be running her hard. I just want to sleep her out a bit as she is my daily driver. I dont mind go through tranny as long as it last a somewhat reasonable amout of mile (50k or so) and i can pull a good 450whp.

I already have a track car so i wont be using this on the track.

Search Altima SE-R Manual swap. Search Ghozt turbo thread. Both are relevant to these goals. CVT will let you down.

M90 is too small.

6speed swap it.

I wish you and your maxima good luck my friend=/....I don't know of any 7gens with a 6spd swap so if there is than ignore what I'm saying hahaha. But since I don't believe there is no 6spd swap'd 7gen the S/C would be a bad idea. Ghost already tried a turbo which too much boost was bad on the trans and kept throwing it into limp mode(i think the end result was settling with 2-3 PSI=/). He even had all the pipes wrapped to keep cool, including oil cooler/trans cooler, etc. The CVT simply couldn't handle the power gain. and since the s/c provides power from the jump I would think this would be worse than the turbo. I think his lasted a week before it thru it into limp so I would think the S/C would last a few days...IMHO. I could be wrong, again, I hope it works out for you because if it does than I would definitely follow suit=).

This may sound stupid(excuse me, I am not a mechanic lol). But, I wonder if transmissions from a Nissan Cedric y33 would work for our cars? or even a y34? I know they have the vq30det motors and not the vq35 but I figured it's something someone who has the money and time(cuz I dont lol) maybe able to look into.
