    I always just stick with redline as it is easier for me to get ahold of, but the royal purple is very comparable. Why dont u want the MTL??

    From what I have been able to figure out is Syncromax is for trannys that require ATF.

    As Redline is not available locally for me, I will be putting Syncromax in my mac this weekend. Hope it will help the nochiness.. or however that is spelled.

    Working great the fluid really improved the smootheness of shifting I recommend it to anyone.
