I switched over to the RedLine D4 ATF in the Tremec TR6060 trans. The OP is spot on with his review. I *instantly* noticed an improvement.

Most of the nibble/notchy shifts were gone. Cold start use was 90%+ better in smoothness and ease of shifting.

I don't know if this fluid change will impact the 2nd to 3rd gear brick wall issue I have every so often at 5k-6k rpm shifts but time will tell.

I've been meaning to replace my fluid as well. I have Race Ramps to put the car up on. Will it be a problem if the transmission is tilted backward on the ramps? Or does this not really matter?
