I'm running SSP Pro Red fluid. Stuff is magic juice.

After putting 2k miles on this fluid, IMO:
1. Shifts while driving are a hair smoother, just a little bit
2. No more hard jolt while doing rolling stops, the jolt just disappeared.
3. With the stock fluid, I would notice the tranny do the first couple shifts oddly just after warm up. With SSP fluid, its smooth.

I don't have a tranny temp gauge so can't tell a temp difference.

I was skeptical about buying it first, but definitely glad Jeremy convinced me lol

I'm still very reluctant to try other oils besides factory. I like what I hear about them, but no one knows the long term affects. I'd hate to have my clutches go out 30k miles prematurely.

I think for now I'll stick with factory until there are people with 50k+ miles on other fluids.
