Default Royal purple synchromax

Thinking about changing my trans fluid this weekend. Anyone that has used this stuff, how is it? Good, bad, any noticable difference in shifting? Or should I use something different. Whats the easiest way to add the fluid to the trans? Pulling the shifter or using the tiny hole on top of the trans? Any info would be great. Thanks.

as an option I swapped stock fluid out (regular after my rebuild) for Mobil 1 fully synthetic ATF in my T45... and it loves it. Smooth shifts, drives like silk. However, you do hear the trans gears spinning about 5% more.

Now to get my engine goin this smooth...

Plain old Havoline DEXRON III (3.2 quarts) works great in the Tremec 3650. I would fill it through the filler hole (on the side, not the top) of the transmission unless you are going to be changing the shifter anyway. If so the open shifter mounting hole is a perfect (and very easy) place to re-fill it from.
