if you want a cheep way to get it in just take off your intake take a water bottle cut the bottem off the part that you drink from put that into where you put the fulid and then pore it in like a funle worked perfect.

75w/80w, the bottle should have a big MTL on it. if you go through summit racing the part number is "RED - 50204"...its usually 7.99/ quart but its on sale for 6.45/quart
there is a haz-mat fee so take that into account, but i use summit alot and they are good

I'm going to put redline in my tranny in a couple weeks. From the response both here and at the http://www.bobistheoilguy.com boards, the stuff works great for cooler climates and for racers, but "daily driving," grandmas might not dig it, because people were saying the shifts felt different.... ymmv.
If you change the MTL yourself, yeah, get the redline MTL, the light "Honda acura" stuff, and undo the filler bolt first, THEN the drain bolt. Always nice to be sure you can fill it before you drain it :-)
good luck.
