This is good advice. We're talking about a $30,000 sports car here, folks. Do it!!

Lubrication Engieneers, you'll only need 1 quart. Many S2k vendors stock it such as GoFastLabs, Rick's, and Hardtop Guy.

I have 600 miles on a new MY05 diff. Is it too early to change fluid with a synthetic? I was thinking of the Amsoil synthetic 80w-90 GL-5 gear oil (I have a case of it in my basement).

I'd wait until 2-3k miles, let the gears break-in.

Yes, LE607 is the correct fluid for our rear differentials. I am running it and have no complaints. Supposedly its a bit louder than the M1 75W-90, but thats a trade-off for better warm-weather protection.
