they say to use regular atf (dextron III) but if you are looking for something alittle better, you might wanna try mercon 5 (semi synetic dextron III)

[/QUOTE]Scotty, where did you get that fluid from and what made you decide to get it in the first place? Did you run those times in your sig with that fluid and does the tranny shift any better with it than with the stock fluid? Thanks. [/QB]

Got it at the Honda dealer (bend over!)

Yes, my sig time was run with it. I've been running the stuff for a year or so. It seems to shift a little better. The main reason I use it is because someone that rows gears much faster than me recommended it (Jason99TA).
