Red Line MTL

So even in sunny san diego, in the morning whenit is cold and wet it was difficult for me to get reverse engaged in my 2003 sedan. I hear about this redline MTL, and I thought since I use Red Line Synthetice, I'd give it a whirl my next oil change. After getting strange looks at Home depot buying 5 ft of clear vinyl tubing and a funnel (The helpful salesguy said that if I wanted to do THAT I should get the wider tubing because the beer goes down faster... lol) I got the ever helpful girlfriend to pour for me, and filled up my tranny with the redline.

So far, wow, it is quite nice. On a cold morning yesterday, the tranny had no torouble shifting into reverse, and trucking up I-5 to Fullerton I felt the tranny was smoother when in gear. Engaging the shifts, I felt a more positive crisp shift (Which some peole love, some people hate) but thats good stuff for me.

Now I just need to be sure that my air filter on the V2 isnt letting in TOO much crap... My redline was a bit dirty after only 3500 miles and I don't like to see that usually.

Anyone have any experiences, positive or negative with the redline MTL?

Flashlightboy is an unknown quantity at this point
I'm using MTL in my '03. Shifts are smoother and more precise.

It takes a little bit of driving to get everthing coated but when you do it's like butta!

Highly recommended!
