Im just curious what would happen if I ran MT90 in a 6 speed. the reason i ask is i get redline fairly cheap and would rather not spend 90 bucks on oem fluid. any input is appreciated.

I have that in my 6 Speed as recommended by AMS in Chicago. Feels better than the stock fluid IMHO. I have had it in there for probably 5,000 miles so far.

Im in the same position. I want to try mt-90, but every tuner ive talked to recommend oem. Tell us how mt-90 feels in the 6spd.

I have been using a MOPAR 75W-85 Gl-4 fully synthetic exact equivalent to the DiaQueen since 12,000 miles. Right now, I have 70,000 miles. I just sent my tranny oil in to Blackstone Labs to get a baseline for my 6 speed. I will let people know the results.

BTW, this fluid got rid of my 2nd gear grind/notchiness in the morning.

I have spoke to a few people who track their 6spd and have had great luck with the mt90. I believe Bryan@gst is running the redline stuff in his and seems to like it.

Bryan was running an MT-90/RHS cocktail.

The actual recipe is in a Bryan post somewhere. Maybe it was even on EvoM. Can't remember. It was MT-90 with a little Heavyweight Shockproof. Said it dropped his temps about 10* C.

Yes I use a cocktail of MT90 and about 1/2 qt of shockproof heavy. It's a bit bulky in the colder mornings but once warmed up it's butter.
