That's the correct way. Read the post before yours.

My apologies. I've heard there's a method of filling through the drain plug for the t-case as well, so I wasn't sure what the 'best' way listed was.

I've been able to fill up my tcase with the correct amount of fluid without needing to drive around in between fills. That's what I meant by not necessarily following the "proper" technique.

This is incredible... I can't add up the miles on all 5 of my cars and be where you're at on just your evo. I'm thoroughly impressed.
