question about Syncromesh

So I am going to get the Syncromesh put in my car this week. what is the full name of the stuff i need to get? is it actually transmission fluid?
once i get this, i need to flush my tranny fluid and get a new filter correct?

GM Syncromesh Friction Modified is MTF fluid, only usable on MT trans. There is no filter to change on the MT trans, so if you have AT trans w/ filter, this is not applicable. It's just a drain and fill procedure.

the automatic runs ONLY on Honda ZR1 auto trans fluid- especially while in warranty!!!!
nothing added to it either-

If your car has a shifting problem, it may have a real trans prob that warranty will take care of.
Whats your situation?

Just change out the fluid with Acura's recommended ATF. Do it 3x, and you'll be find.
