Has anyone heard/seen/trailed a chipped CVT?

Seems like that might be the best, solid "bang-for-the-buck"...

I see TonyB2's (?) post in the "technique" thread, but I'd be interested to hear about any digitally-modifeid CVT's in the US.

Powerchip advertises a 13hp & 11 lb. ft gain with thier installation, which rates at just under $38/hp gain; admittedly, I don't know where they're measuring the hp... Maybe $44.54/lb. ft. is more applicable.

That's almost half way to 35hp. Maybe its me, but I'd trust a digital mod over an intake/exhaust mod - and depending on the specific intake/exhaust equipment, it might be more cost-effective.

Here's the info they put out:
