Best stuff out there is Redline MT-90. I and many others have experienced significantly smoother shifting and less gear noise after draining the gearbox and refilling with MT-90.

Just to clarify Dexron11 is for automatics..SAE90 or equivelent for manual.....have a look in the knowledge base section under technical and the gearbox section... Steve
