Only use OEM Diaqueen for your transfer case and rear diff. Amsoil or Redline for your transmission. I know the Evo 8 transmission requires a GL-4 fluid, but I don't know about the Evo 9 transmission. Make sure you find out because most if not all GL-5 transmission fluids damage yellow metals (synchros).

This might help... Link--> Evo Engine, Gearbox, T-case, LSD & AYC Oil Specfications.

FYI... X-treme UK is the name of that old tuning firm called... RalliArt.

Yep, anything but Diaqueen = death for diffs and transfercase. Plain old MT-90 works awesome for me in the tranny. Tried the fancy Motul stuff and it was notchy and miserable.
