Wasn't that the cause of Ryan burning up the T-case in his evo last year?

BTW, I would say that 99% of the broken trannies are due to user error (mishifting). I got my talon with a bad 2nd. Swapped it with a good tranny (had bad 3rd). I have used what ever I can find at checker and have not had a problem with any tranny in any of my dsms. One car I sold, the new owner broke the shift fork within 2 days. I shift hard (on the gas, NLTS off as it drops revs too much, and slam it into gear as quick as possible) and it was fine for me. The other 1% is due to too much power like shane shearing gears off. I do not believe in a miracle fluid to keep tranies glued together. But then again, I also think that the brand of oil doesn't matter if the API rating is the same.
