MT-90 from Redline

Thanks for that very informative post Ryan. I've only tried MT85 and OEM so far. I was thinking (and this might sound like I'm over-thinking) about mixing MT85 and MT90

Thanks for that very informative post Ryan.

I've only tried MT85 and OEM so far. I was thinking (and this might sound like I'm over-thinking) about mixing MT85 and MT90 to get a ~MT88 type of blend. I already have a few bottles of each laying around so I might just test it out over the holidays.

I believe this may be what you did here, when you say quote:

I’ve also tried the following mixes:
1 quart MTL + 2 quarts MT90 which is not as good as the 50/50 mix.
2 quarts MT90 + 1 quart MTL which is a better alternative for a mainly street driven car then straight MT90.

But it seems like these two blends would be the exact same thing right? They are both 1/3 MTL and 2/3 MT90 fill.

Mandingo you're welcome.
Looks like I goofed typing those mixes though.
They should have read:

2 quarts MTL + 1 quarts MT90 is not as good as the 50/50 mix.

2 quarts MT90 + 1 quart MTL which is a better alternative for a mainly street driven car then straight MT90.


So yes, 2/3 MT90 and 1/3 MTL should give you a little better hot shifting over the MT85 while not being as harsh as MT90 in the morning when cold. While I haven't tried it I'd think the 2qrts MT85 and 1qrt MT90 should be a pretty good combination as well.
