Question New Tranny fluid for the Evo(Amsoil)

Just wanted to get an opinion on this new MT Amsoil fluid...
https://www.amsoil.com/storefront/mtg.aspx

Anyone using this? I use Amsoil motor oil in my Toyota SUV....after 10,000 miles the oil is not even black!!
This might be a good replacement for BG Syncroshift....?

Mitsuorder is using it now and says it shifts better than Synchromesh (which I found to shift the best out of every commonly "know" brands). I will be using this stuff next, and if it is as good as the rest of the Amsoil products, from then on.

I run this as well. When the tranny is cold its a bit notchy like redline, but once things heat up during normal driving its slick as butter. I also have used BG for a few years in my old 2003, but will be staying with AMSoil for the forseeable future.

My 2005 has 2800 miles on it now. I switched tranny oil almost same week I got the car.
