FWIW, while most reports are good, there are some regarding accelerated synchro wear with Redline in other vehicles. I had a costly synchro failure with a very rare BMW 2002 Getrag CR 5-speed after switching. Maybe a coincidence...
Our three c900 turbos are all using Honda MTF now for many years and are driven frequently and on occasional long trips. They all shift great and when checking, the MTF stays incredibly clear which at least to me means it is working well. I've read that after Honda developed it, their recommended change interval went from 30k to 100k miles. No idea if the MTF was the reason.
