Question Using MTX fluids in our ATX: Right / Wrong / Moot?

I have been scouring the threads for this info, but for some reason I can't seem to find it. Perhaps its just a MOOT point or worse a dumb question, but it would be really cool if someone would clarify it.

I want to know if putting MTX fluid in my ATX will help or hurt?

Does anyone have any experience with mechanical breakdown (sooner than later or vice versa) if they used MTX fluid in their ATX tranny?

Does MTX fluid in the ATX tranny for a HARD DRIVER make for smoother shifting and lower temperatures?

If you have put MTX fluid in your ATX please comment on your experience with it.

What MTX fluid did you choose to put in your ATX? (IE: Redline, Castrol, etc..)

I have been looking into putting Red Line MTL or MT-90 in my ATX. Would this be a bad idea?


A well known guru here puts in Castrol ATF+3 and says it works great and I'm probably going to take his recommendation if someone can't tell me that putting in MTX fluid provides better protection and better shifting.

If MTX fluid is a bad idea in an ATF tranny, then please report what ATF fluids would be good "high performance" choices for a hard driver. Up until now I have always put in the standard factory fluids types or stuff from Wal-Mart. I want to know what fluid is ABOVE the wal-mart/factory level.
