It sounds like you're assuming a CVT wants to be some sort of constant torque output. That might be true of certain types in certain applications, but the "New CVT technology" at the heart of this thread is merely a transmission with a continuously variable "gear ratio" using spherical transfer instead of toroids and disks.
Did you take a good look at the diagram and description on the
web site that
Eldarion posted? I'd be very surprised if the CVT you repaired has much in common with the one being discussed here.
