Little update: MPG's still over 2 MPG improvement still. I repainted the steering wheel trim that was pealing. Changing the fluids to Redline D4 seemed to make no improvement in shifting from the OEM, in some cases it has made shifting slightly harsh in some gears. Id say the OEM fluid is still the best option which I will change out too after the next oil change.

In other news I hit a giant ice chunk on my way home and destroyed the engine splash shield and cracked the paint on the bumper. The impact was enough to ruin one of the TPMS antennas in the fender well as a result, the tpms light is displaying Inactive in the dash. Doah!

More improvements to come. I have new set of Michelin Pilot Super Sports sitting in the garage in 235/40/18 and 265/35/18 sizes.
