I use it!

I have it in the engine, tranny, and diffs - some people don't like it in the tranny

Almost sounds like fanny, in which case, I have to quote my buddy "puckadog"; It only hurts at first!

i've used it before in my other cars and it wasn't bad... but with my last car i switched to royal purple for the last two oil changes and i'll be putting it into the Evo now... Amsoil is a good choice as well i think... but, like said, gonna stick with Royal Purple's products...

I use RedLine exclusively. If they void my warranty for that, I'm going to sue them.

I have redline throughout my drivetrain. If they void a warranty for putting superior fluid in, then they got a lawsuit coming for sure

If someone needs some I've got two bottles 1qt each for sale for $10 shipped per bottle... It's fluid replacement for your Evo's TC and Rear Diff
