It's a great oil and my turbo bearings love it even with the extra boost.

I also use Redline MT-90 for my gearbox. Best shifts i've had in ages and the FS5R30A loves the oil to bits. I'm usually an objective person, but the difference between Redline and my old Motul Gear 300 is like night and day.
I don't live in the states. Live in Australia. And it's actually more expensive.

What car do you drive? A fren of mine had a pretty bad experience with Redline's MT-90 on his Version 8 STI Impreza. After awhile he said shifting the gearbox feels like moving a really heavy stone laugh.gif After a few days he changed to Motul's 90PA and it was alot better. Same like you...like night and day but the other way around hahaha laugh.gif

Because he is using the wrong oil.
The correct oil for redline brand on the Sti should be Redline 75W90NS or Shockproof lightweight.

The motul 90PA is ok.

Thanks for the feedback! What does NS mean behind the viscosity index? tongue.gif
