A good variator will give you what you are looking for. OEM transmissions are set up for emissions standards, to meet both noise and pollution levels, and a aftermarket variator will optimize the power band to full potential. Again, I noted "good" variator, as all aftermarket performance variators are not created equal. From my experience, TST makes junk, Polini works but hard to tune, Malossi works great but roller weight choice is important, Naraku is nice for the money, NCY makes nice package deal kits for a fair price-comes with a variator and torque driver, J.Costa is just weird. So, pick wisely and enjoy. For variator removal you will need fixed face locking tool or strap wrench to hold it (use a impact gun at your OWN RISK-not recommended!), socket for the nut, and a torque wrench for reassembly (rent/borrow from auto parts store). You Tube will be your friend for how-to videos. So you bought the Jonway? Get a good price? Year and miles?
