Default Ravenol ATF, anyone use it?

Got about 70k on the clock. Thought about doing a change out on the ATF. Anyone try Ravenol T-WS yet?

Trying to find a reputable dealership in SoCal that knows how to do it correctly.

Nothing wrong with Toyota WS, but it's not the fluid everyone builds it up to be. I'm always a big believer of using factory OEM, but if the product is better aftermarket, I'll use it.

That being said. I use Amsoil in my fzj-80 (drivetrain), Motul in my ISF (diff).

When you have oil industry engineers geeking out on the bob forums mentioning Toyota Ws vs Ravenol. It makes me wonder, would this be a better choice?
